You're thinking like a developer rather than a business guy. If source code is worthless, give it away and monetize in other ways. This Is exactly like industrialization "killing" artisans. Yes most couldn't operate like before, but there's now super niche artisans and cost of the basics are much lower with higher average quality

Thats not my point at all, i think *good* and *well engineered* software will be valuable. And if theres any value for software engineers left it will be that, safeguarding their good architecture from ais. AIs can’t really build large, well engineered things by themselves atm. But they are really good at stealing

Do you not believe ai will just learn or steal good architecture eventually? I'm not sure if your point was just that ai steals but it sounded like you implicitly are concerned about the economic value of human made software.
