I think it's naïve to compare automation of the human mind, to that of the human body.

This isn't John Henry vs the Steam Drill.

We're approaching something that will be able to (and already can in some respects) do every single task a human brain can, but faster and cheaper.

I think it's extremely unlikely that software engineers will shift to "AI managers" for any meaningful amount of time. The goal here is to replace the human worker. There might be a period of time where we have AI managers for AI developers but that seems like an unnecessary human abstraction. If an AI is capable for management, and development, it can just be one system, rather than two.
