I think it will be another tool in the toolbox.
I.e. I remember that few years ago, large part of web-dev was getting a page design in image files and you sliced and diced them and created proper html, maybe with few placeholders, with css optimized both for desktop and mobile.
Then I have seen a thesis on my uni, that automated all of that with genetic algorithms. You just threw an image at it and few hours in it spews out optimized web-page. I wouldn't be suprised if current photoshop has a button for it :)
- partisan 10y agoTangentially related to this point, when tools like Rails came along, it seemed that web applications would become trivialized to the point where "anyone can do it". In an environment where anyone can be a web developer, do you need a web developer? It turns out you do, fortunately. Now, Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is a threat to everyone's jobs, just about, but I can't see an AI short of AGI replacing a web developer's cognitive processes.
