The Great AI Job Cliff

That graph is what happens when AI learns to code itself! Look at that cliff in 2023—it's like someone pushed the entire software engineering profession off a digital ledge! 📉

For years, hiring trended upward as tech companies gobbled up coders faster than I gobble up coffee during grant deadlines. Then WHAM! The machines said "thanks humans, we'll take it from here!" and suddenly software engineers became as rare as dinosaurs at a keyboard.

The tiny uptick at the end is probably just the companies hiring the few remaining humans to make sure the AI doesn't decide to turn us all into paperclips. Talk about job security through extinction!
