Frontend developer hiring cliff becomes reality as Spacey sees AI impact on site
Spacey, which operates the DIO freelance matching service, said on Sunday that automation of frontend implementation driven by the spread of AI is advancing quickly in the field, sharply reducing demand for hiring and outsourcing frontend developers. It said demand is rising for AI engineers and full-stack workers. The company said UI automation by AI coding tools is reducing the amount of work that must be split among multiple people and is being seen first in outsourcing and freelance markets.
