People are retarded but you included. Yes coding is over saturated and going to be replaced by open ai. However that’s the fucking pajeets and roasties.

The actual cs people aren’t going anywhere because they’re getting hired to map out the bigger picture and actually need to think. even with open ai, someone needs the recipe/ workflow to let open ai know what to build and with what tools. That requires a high iq typically of someone with injtp or whatever that 4chan Incel introverted personality is. Also it’s not too late to learn

This. There will be a massive need for people who:
1. Can see the bigger picture ie the interface between real world and large scale AI systems
2. Know how to create a hybrid AI/human workflow to implement a large scale AI system

Good social skills and leadership skills are a must too.

Got the job because a buddy of his worked there and recommended him to his boss.
Never saw a computer before and never heard of programming before.

Made $20 an hour.

CS will never be oversatured until degree mills actually begin popping out competent programmers. As it stands, the kinds of programmers entering the workforce now are creating new work for everyone because they're introducing bugs and incapable of meeting delivery targets. Pair that with maintenance work being required for their new programs in addition to the legacy code and you have a recipe for a money printer.

you have 70k after taxes and literally investing in your retirement fund, which is a luxury you're choosing to do that a lot of people cannot.

So after investing in your 401K, you still have about 70k left over. You spend half of that on rent. You have 35k to spend on literally whatever the hell you want. You probably only need around 6K of groceries a year. You're already investing in your 401K. You have almost 30K of literally just "extra" money you can do whatever the fuck you want with (Save, invest more, throw away on fun shit)

The other anon is right, you have never worked in real IT.
Real bugs are always created because there is miscommunication or oversight during the design phase. You can write 100 unit tests and run them in your CI/CD - it will not help you if no one knows the real requirements.
