That's why I'm sceptical about the value of ai in software development. Much more can now be done but I don't see costumers paying more for it. The only way it can work is by laying off software engineers and saving money on their salaries.

Tend to agree. AI has failed to produce more business outcome. The only thing left is cost efficiency by reducing headcount. Thus 5x more productivity means needing just 1/5th your current staffing.
