Unfortunately, like many jobs in the past, ours is changing.

I don't have a crystal ball, so I don't know what the future hold.

All we can do is be informed about LLMs and futur techs, produce the best outputs with the constraints we have and hope for the best.

Keep your skills up to date, and hopefully find a job where LLMs aren't shoved down your throat. Or pivot towards something else.

Coachmen had to learn a new job, and it might be our turn.

I don't hold a lot of hope for the next few years. It's gonna be rough. All we can be is ready to the best of our abilities.
