I've considered this as well, but machines need not be conscious to replace human labor. Maybe there is some ineffable spark of human creativity that is necessary for coding that no machine can duplicate. That doesn't mean that eventually they can't have 100 AIs working on coding with one poorly paid human at the end of the line providing that ineffable spark for $12.50/hour. Even if some human input is always required, that doesn't solve the labor displacement issues if one person can now do the work of a hundred. The steam machine wasn't conscious, but it still killed John Henry.
