But there are people who already doing what you are currently doing. Also they do it waaaay better. If this does not make you redundant, why would AI do it?

No they don't. There is a very limited supply of developers who are better than me.

I am talking about a future where we have a practically infinite supply of cheap AGI software developers that are vastly superior to the smartest human being who ever lived.

And where do you find the energy technology required for that to happen?

Hint: it's not on the radar, but if you account for several fundamental breakthroughs in energy production, storage and transport, and all that while having positive side-effects on Earth's ecosystem, within the next 50 years.

I'm not talking about current primitive technology with these power hungry LLMs.

The human brain runs on only 0.3 kWh per day. There is much room for optimization for artificial intelligence.

They don't need many super intelligent systems to replace the relatively small number of software developers.

Just build a few nuclear power stations. Cheaper than millions of developer salaries.
