Great question Dhruv. I think tech is absolutely still safe — but the definition of "safe" has shifted. It's no longer about just knowing a language or framework. The developers thriving in 2026 are the ones building leverage with AI, not competing against it.
I've been working on AnveVoice (anvevoice.app) — an AI voice assistant that takes real actions on websites like clicking buttons, filling forms, navigating pages. Building something like this taught me that the real safety net in tech isn't your current job title, it's your ability to solve problems at the intersection of AI and real user needs.
Adaptability > stability. The people getting laid off often had deep but narrow skills. The ones getting hired are generalists who can ship AI-powered products end to end. Tech is still the best career path — you just have to keep evolving with it.
