What Do Developers Do Now in the Age of AI?

HTML All The Things - Web Development, Web Design, Small Business

About this episode

AI tools are changing how software is written - but what does that actually mean for developers right now? In this episode, Matt and Mike dig into whether AI will replace developers or simply reshape the role, all while the tech job market remains challenging for juniors and experienced devs alike. They discuss why developer documentation and tutorial content is seeing traffic declines, how this moment echoes past tech panic cycles like automation in the trucking industry, and what today’s uncertainty means for aspiring developers. The conversation also explores career pivots, skill diversification, and whether this is an overreaction - or a genuine turning point for the industry.
