The more time I spend actually working with these tools the less I fear for my future career.

Building software remains really hard. Most people are not going to be able to produce production quality software systems, no matter how good the AI tooling gets.

Conversely, if the models ever make it to the point where they can replace ~all developers we will presumably have achieved AGI or even ASI and all other jobs will also be eliminated more or less simultaneously. So at least we'll all be in good company (and there probably won't be much point to marketing yourself in that case).
