Anything that involves dealing with stakeholders and figuring out how an implementation can add business value, including gathering requirements and managing implementations.
But no, AI is not going to completely replace developers.
It’s not about sales callers who are the “top of the funnel”. Many B2B solutions require customizations and take time to implement and make work with the clients business. Think cloud migrations and consulting for new products, SalesForce, various CRM and whatever business processes that Oracle does, etc.
You have sometimes dozens of people across multiple departments that you have to coordinate and train.
I can’t say where AI will be. But it might get good enough to know how to do something. It won’t be able to know what to do and what people need.
One thing I am having a hard time wrap my head around is that in its current form AI might not replace developers or say sales callers completely but what about 3-4 years from now? Does AI continue to get exponentially better or will we hit some kind of tech ceiling due to inherent limitations of LLMs?
