I would definately take that bet. Software development is not the job most people think it is, even at the junior level. The thing that most outside of the field dont know about is that the hardest part is figuring out what needs to be done, not how to do it / code it.

Ive seen some impressive and revolutionary stuff from generative AI.. and have been studying it and using it much longer than most here on Reddit, but what Ive learned is that generative AI is really not as job-destroying as people are hyping it to be. The ceo of OpenAI has said this -- GPT4 is going to let some people down, because its not an AGI.

Alright meet me here in 5 years 27 Feb 2028, if A.I did not reduce job opportunities for your profession by at least 50% I lost the bet.

that said if it reduced it by 35% or more you have to at least concede it was better then you expected.
