Kind of will. There are already templates on demand for things like generating unit tests as you code. They're pretty robust already, and have aside from a few things (or edge cases), I don't have to do much code refactoring or fixing them.

They already save me several hours a week from manually setting up full ones. Haven't delved into other stuff they can do, but I'm sure it would only be more useful with time.

I can very easily see companies looking at the time save and thinking "we can downsize".

And the execs who made these stupid decisions get their golden parachutes and everyone else has been laid off.
