As a software engineer, though, I would not recommend to anyone to learn webdev right now.

I do know a bit of webdev but really don't enjoy it. I have used GPT-4 to produce in one hour what would take me 2 days to make. It is like having a very motivated and fast-typing intern.

It won't end our job right now in that state, but I think it would be irresponsible to not be at least a bit worried about the 2-3 years span.

Actually personally I would be very surprised if we don't have more people writing coding prompts than actual code by the end of 2025.
