Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!
In the 1950s, software engineers were rare, with fewer than 10,000 professionals in the U.S. due to the complex nature of programming.
Over time, automation tools like compilers and IDEs made programming easier, and the demand for engineers grew. By the 2010s, AI advancements like TensorFlow and GitHub’s Copilot began automating parts of software development, raising concerns about job security.
By 2025, AI tools had automated up to 30% of software development tasks, leading to fewer junior positions. However, specialized skills and creativity remain in demand, with AI not yet able to replace human expertise in all areas.
