I saw a tweet today which was roughly saying, "Did calculators replace Mathematicians? Then, why do you think AI will replace programmers?" I guess it had a point. I don't think they will be replacing programmers, but they might reduce the number of programmers required to achieve a task. Instead of having 100 programmers, you can probably get the job done with 10 + AI-tools.

AI won't replace programmers completely. It will actually make them faster and more efficient by automating repetitive tasks and assisting with things like code generation, analysis, and optimization. However, programming requires human creativity and problem-solving thinking that are hard to replicate with AI alone, so i think programmers will still be essential in the future.

AI is likely to augment the work of programmers by automating repetitive tasks and suggesting solutions, but the creative thinking, problem-solving abilities, and domain expertise of human programmers will remain indispensable in shaping the future of technology.

While AI has the potential to automate certain aspects of programming, programmers will continue to play a crucial role in designing, maintaining, and expanding AI systems for the foreseeable future.

AI is poised to enhance and streamline the programming process, allowing programmers to focus on higher-level tasks, fostering a collaborative partnership between human programmers and intelligent machines.

The evolution of AI holds the potential to automate certain aspects of programming, but it is improbable that it will completely replace the creativity, problem-solving abilities, and human touch that programmers bring to the table.

Not sure about replacement but will definitely increase productivity

Tools don't replace workers so to speak, they do make their work more efficient making it so that less worker would be needed. In the same way a calculator or a compauter never replaced mathematicians and physicists, AI won't do it either. It will make however their work much more efficient. Some people compare it to the dawn of the tractor. But there is a major difference. While there is only a certain amount of land, which means people and tractors compete to work in the same space, with everything digital, teher is infinite space, meaning that faster AI (better tractors) creates more space for everyone (more land).

No I don't think so, writing efficient code is still a thing that requires human creativity. I think we humans will stop doing basic coding stuff and focus more on specialised knowledge. AI can pretty much take care of meaningless stuff.

Hello, already now some AIs are being hired by Juniors and in the future, if the AI ​​becomes even more progressive, then it will be difficult for the initial programmers.

AI will only replace those who are not staying ahead of the curve by ups killing them to become the best user of that AI

AI itself will not replace programmers. It is possible that AI tools will replace many programmers if programmers utilize AI tools.
Olivia Wright
Unlikely. AI can automate certain tasks, but programming requires human creativity and expertise. Collaboration between AI and programmers is more probable.

AI is a tool not a crutch. It can expedite your product development but it won't replace the value a solid technical person can bring on board.

Then who's gonna program AI
Luke Skyward
It definitely can automate certain tasks, but in its current form, it will not automate the end-to-end process.

I think AI will change how programmers work and create new opportunities. I don't think it will replace programmers completely.

While AI has the potential to automate certain aspects of programming, it's unlikely to fully replace programmers in the future. Programmers bring creativity, problem-solving skills, and human intuition to the table, which are crucial for developing innovative solutions. So, programmers and AI can work hand in hand, creating a powerful partnership. 🤝💻

Just as today there are product managers, agile coaches and other positions to improve the development process. Human roles with good management of AI will also appear. PromptMasters may be a good name...

Ai will surely replace actual programmers that have to migrate to another type of work. like robot replace workers in factories but can't replace creators that are engineers Ai wil not replace the intelligence but another type of programs will surely come to life to replace most activities of a programmers.
