There's a lot to unpack on this subject and tons of anecdata but the article manages to unpack an infinitesimal amount of real data.
The result shown is that the total number of software jobs has increased the last 3 years (of the data), even increasing relative to total USA population.
It shows a 23% increase in employment the last 3 years overall (1.6/1.3 million = 1.23).
Data ends before 2024.
It mentions BLS analysis projects a 17% growth until 2033. (Useful if LLMs are not a paradigm shift, or if BLS took that into account?)
This comment is longer than the article if you remove the preamble discussion of LLMs.
