To reinforce this, just had a meeting with a software executive who has no coding experience but is nearly certain he's going to lay off nearly all his employees because the value is all in the requirements he manages and he can feed those to a prompt just as well as any human can.
He does tutorial fodder introductory applications and assumes all the work is that way. So he is confident that he will save the company a lot of money by laying off these obsolete computer guys and focus on his "irreplaceable" insight. He's convinced that all the negative feedback is just people trying to protect their jobs or people stubbornly not with new technology.
