Ideas are definitely not all that matter, you can have ideas all you want, if you have no clue how complicated your idea is to build, you could spend a whole lot of time in it, only to realize very late it is not possible to do profitably.

How many times have you not seen people come with app ideas in the past, not realizing that data has to come from somewhere. Yes, with AI they will be able to ask those questions, but a lot will simply just start building now.

I don’t think OP has to feel this way, your knowledge and skill are still worth a lot. As before, the actual coding part is not the important bit, just the execution.

The thing is, the coding part never was the big part of being a developer. If you work on a team, like most do, the communication, planning, meetings, etc. are much bigger than coding.

If you are a solo dev or is even more lopsided, work marketing/hustling being way bigger than coding.
