The trouble I have is, that unlike the Cobol and Assembler era of the Mainframes, React, JavaScript and Python are beginner technology for AI.

In other words: AI doesn't have a blind spot no matter whether AI will ever "get" Cobol or not.

So even if we jump into 2050, we won't have to fix any React application due to three simply reasons: It is easier to build something new; AI understands the old garbage; and the last one: who knows, what will be in 2050?

Tough time.

My biggest concern is not AI, but the total demotivation of the veterans. Suddenly there isn't merit nor fun in building something over a week you took off. And that hits hard.

Forget weekend projects, people are using AI for talking to each other via IM! It is infuriating!
