Mid-level folks: are you optimistic or pessimistic about job prospects?

Hey all, I was talking to people at a few local mixers/events this past week. While I've been watching AI tools rip through my friends and connections in the software engineering world, it feels like every AI tool adds ~3 new tasks to my plate. In some ways, despite the broader economy, I feel pretty confident in my job security and staying in demand.

I know this question is broad, but for the mid-level folks on this sub, how are you feeling? Obviously unemployment looms in the back of our heads, but are you feeling relatively secure in your position over the next year or two? Next five?
