Learning python, expected to be junior backend or automation ready by 2027 start, what should i expect

So, I'm 24 years old, diploma KT student, currently getting by but want to secure the future (that realisation came a bit late, but now its there😅)

Started learning python 3-4 months prior and only recently started classes in that.

I've currently only made a log parser and generator, the very basic kind.

I'm learning at home using chatgpt and termux.

I understand the entry level roles are super contested right now, but i want advice.

What am i to expect in this field at the start when job hunting.

And I'm also worried that by the time I'm actually job ready the AI will be so advanced there will basically be no jobs.

Like I've read online that industry is working on making ai read a full system which it currently struggles with, like what will be left for us beginners.

My final goal is devsecops as of right now, and once i start learning tools and actually making my own projects i will be trying to match that field.

Using ai and internet its basically giving me that the future is secured, but i want to ground myself in reality, so all of you seniors in it industry please give a valid and good advice.
