I've mainly developed data-heavy interactive web apps, which requires expertise with data, web platform, frameworks, software engineering. I feel like clients will soon be able to do as well using AI agents. And even if I'm reactive, the feedback loop is times faster with AI. Why would they contract me instead? For guidance? Temporal team augmentation? Because they trust my result more than using agents directly?

AI also applies pressure on what I'm expected to provide. As agents are able to implement software so quickly, how should I adapt my prices and delays? And am I supposed to use agents exclusively to match some new velocity standard in shipping features? If you're a freelance developer, how are you adapting your offer? If you're contracting freelancers, what are you primarily looking for? Please comment here or DM me, I'm very interested in your insights! 🙏 3/3
