Sure, it's just that the era of super high paying programming jobs may be over.

And also, manufacturing jobs have greatly changed. And the effect is not even, I imagine. Some types of manufacturing jobs are just gone.

That might be the case. Perhaps it lowers the difficulty level so more people can do it and therefor puts downward pressure on wages.

Or… it still requires similar education and experience but programmers end up so much more efficient they earn _more_.

Hard to say right now.

Probably, but I'm not sure that had much to do with AI.

The manufacturing work that was automated is not exactly the kind of work people want to do. I briefly did some of that work. Briefly because it was truly awful.
