I guess technically you pay them for their skill in using AI, good UX and design principals, and the intuition they've acquired from years of grueling corporate work.

I use AI at work (only to tick the required box that says "look, I'm using it! Don't fire me!") and as it stands right now there's no way many of these manager types could build anything useful or maintainable with it. Not on an enterprise scale with multiple domains, APIs, databases, third-party services, all this interconnectivity and business logic, etc... It hallucinates so much and the solutions it comes up with are often times sub-optimal. It also asks questions about technical implementation details that non-technical people would have no idea how to answer.

Devs are still very much needed to use AI and get good results. Will that change at some point? I have no idea.
