I went to a bootcamp, (regret it), but the change from the learning process when i was in it (2021), to now, is steep. The use of AI in writing code has had to have an affect on the jr dev levels of hiring. How could it not? what seasoned SWE isnt more efficient now with the use of AI?

35, male, American citizen. applied to 800 jobs, few technical interviews, no offers. i believe with the advent of AI, the landscape has changed faster than the job market has corrected for it. It will never go back to the glory days of tech people getting hired, its over.
