Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in January that Meta is producing AI that can codes with a middle -level engineer this year. Last month, Sam Ultman said that finally, low software engineers would be needed. Meanwhile, a recent Pew Research survey found that half AI experts predicted that the technology would be less employed by software development in the next two decades.

He said that more software engineers need more software engineers in every period of development in the technology industry, from the height of the PC to the development of mobile phones.

ADP data shows that by January 2024, the United States used software engineers with less software engineers than six years ago.
