I'm just going to respond here with multiple comments misinterpreting or just.. re-spinning my words.

By leverage LLMs, I mean utilize them to help increase your productivity. Dont conflate what I'm saying with vibe-coding or some other pseudo development c-suite daydream.

Real developers are seeing real benefits in their work flow. Orgs are also releasing internal LLMs for general use among non technical employees and trust me when I say, they are paying attention to who is using them and who isn't.

You say this as if they are starting everyone over six figures. Unless you've got a masters or better and you're very well connected, good luck with that.

Entry is going to be more like $60k in the US for less desirable hires. Much less if you happen to be offshore. Which many devs are. That's another trend thats increasing, with many more US domestic organizations currently in the planning phase to open data centers in India and hiring more off shore workers.

Unless you're S -Tier, you're not breaking six figures without putting in years of work with the same org. Gone are the days of a $10k pay bump for a lateral move to a different organization.

The fact is that these days if you're not a talented developer that knows how to leverage LLMs, you're eventually going to be out of work. This is happening right now.

Five years at most is all the professional life LLM haters have left.

Oh, and good luck fighting for WFH in this ecosystem.
