"AIs that won't use developers will be replaced by AIs that will," quips X user

Responding to the perennial "will AI replace developers" debate, an X user offers a reversal: "Developers won't be replacing AI. The AIs who will not be using developers will be replaced by those AIs who will." The quip reframes the argument from humans-vs-AI to AI-vs-AI collaboration, and is resonating as a humorous take on coding-agent anxiety.
