Their kids will be ecstatic: "Tell me again, dad, so, you had this awesome and well paying easy job and you wrecked it? Shut up kid, and tuck in that flap, there is too much wind in our cardboard box."

I have a feeling they internally say "not me, I won't be replaced" and just keep moving...
I'm assuming they all have enough equity that if they actually managed to build an AI capable of replacing themselves they'll be financially set for the rest of their lives.
"Well son, we made a lot of shareholder value."
Is it the first time when workers directly work on their own replacement? If so, software developer may go down in history as the dumbest profession ever.
Couldn't agree more, isn't that the bizarre thing? "We have this great intellectually challenging job where we as workers have leverage. How can we completely ruin that while also screwing up every other white collar profession"
