Hourly Rates Are Not a Work Measurement Anymore

Poking around contract work and it occurred to me that hourly rates are still pre-GenAI.

A senior dev/arch with GenAI skills can probably do 20x now. But we’re not going to work for -19x rates.

It’s a conundrum. Where do we think salaries and contract rates will go?
