In the AI era, developers are actually increasing in number.

There are many predictions that developers will disappear in the AI era.
I'd like to make a cautious argument that there will be more developers.
In the past few decades, the productivity of developers has increased exponentially. One person can now do the work that ten developers did ten years ago. With the power of open source and the cloud, it has become possible to provide large-scale services with less than five developers.
But why is the demand for developers increasing rather than decreasing?
The reason is that software is rapidly absorbing other fields. The software market itself is growing faster than the productivity of developers. Now, media, commerce, and finance are all dominated by software companies.
What about the AI era? I think this trend will grow even bigger than you can imagine. Psychological counseling, childcare, law, medicine, all areas that were thought to be exclusively human will be absorbed by software. This pace is so fast and so intense that I think it may actually increase the demand for developers.
However, development skills may be considered as something like the ability to handle Excel, rather than a specialized skill as it is now. With the power of AI, it may become an area that anyone can learn without much effort or training.
So the most important thing is the ability to provide what people want. For that, development skills will become more instrumental. At times like this, I think you should work for a company that can develop application skills and application abilities rather than the peripheral skills of a developer.
Lilys AI expects developers to plan, interview, report statistics, and produce results. I think it is the best company to develop the ability to satisfy people by using development as a tool.
