Will software worth using eventually require advanced AI to differentiate or add value, limiting the ability for startups or individuals to create desirable software ?
Humans are quite good at all the things AI can do, and are also much more adaptable. So building tools that help humans do what their good at seems like it would still be valuable.
Most software I interact with is broken, buggy or badly designed in ways that AI would not help with.
Humans are good at finding/exploiting edge-cases. No matter how computationally advanced we get, there will always be a limit. And there will always be people imaginative enough to think beyond that limit. Implementation details will probably change as AI automates repetitive tasks. But software developers will be needed to the degree people like thinking outside the box and striving for improved conditions. I don't see that changing any time soon : )
