Learning to code was a matter of financial survival for me. It allowed me to accelerate my socio-econmic mobility, and the added bonus is that I didn't have to refine my low rent communication skills to provide value and m9ve upwards.

AI coding, by default, favors communicators, an overcrowded talent pool dominated by the management class and their entitled progeny. It removes an avenue of socioeconomic mobility for which I reserve a great deal of gratitude and emotional affinity.
