A better analogy would be

"It's like quiting the infantry after artillery and tanks were invented in WWI"

You could probably make more money today as a programmer just fixing bad AI generated code for people than you could working on your own projects I reckon, by a long shot.

So much AI slop code that needs fixing

Honestly someone COULD seriously make bank doing that

"I take your AI generated slop prototype code and turn it into a real application written by humans"
