Will AI decrease demand and salaries?

[u/Proud-Confidence7290]

Hello everyone.

I am new to web development and it goes well so far.

I'm bit scared of AI development. Let's say you needed 10 developers for a project before ChatGPT and now you need 8.

With the development of AI, we will need even less.

Why do people think AI won't decrease demand and salaries of web developers? It's logic for me, what am I missing?

Hello! I see why you might worry about AI and jobs for web developers. But I think the need for developers will stay strong and their pay won't go down. As AI makes some parts of the job easier, it actually means more and better products can be made. Developers will be able to do more tasks better and faster. Instead of taking jobs away, AI helps developers do their jobs better. This means they can work on the harder parts of projects and come up with new ideas. So, there will still be a lot of demand for skilled developers to manage these new technologies.
