AI Engineers aren't safe from being replaced by AI (dmanco.dev) AI
The post argues that “AI engineers” may be among the jobs most likely to be replaced sooner than other developer roles because broad, general foundation models are increasingly being applied across many AI domains, reducing the need for specialized human-built solutions. The author also notes that the job market for “AI engineer” is confused by the umbrella use of “AI,” and concludes that while AI may not fully replace developers because humans still need to define and integrate applications, many AI engineering tasks could be automated.
