I still cannot understand the hype in the developer community. I tried Github's Copilot 6 months ago, and several plugins with integrations to ChatGPT 3.5 and 4 a few months ago, and for me the experience has been very bad. At most, it's a better auto-complete, but not so much better. The only time I've seen it saving time for me was when trying to write a "If this element is not in this data structure, then add it", which anyways would have taken me 20 seconds to write...

But looking at some people telling how AI is "making me 10x productive", or "not using it is like typing with just one hand"... I just cannot understand it.

Last week I asked one of those "10x faster" people what IDE and specific model he was using, to try and see if I'm doing something wrong, and he replied me "ok, if it doesn't work for your specific workflow, then too bad".

So no, I don't think our jobs are going to be taken by AIs anytime soon...
