At that point then, I imagine absolutely everything will have already been automated. Lawyers would certainly no longer be needed, nor would much of the judicial system. Music would be automated, hell maybe even animated movies. We might have celebrity neural nets that produce the best music/paintings/memes.
I definitely agree that coding will look different after AI has permeated most of our information systems, but fully automated coding by 2040? Really? I honestly only see mundane boilerplate type of coding tasks being automated -- though arguably that is probably what a large majority of software developers are currently doing.
- TaylorAlexander 9y agoI talk to people today who think that mechanical design is basically trivial because we have CAD. All these tools do is help us do much more than we could before. But at some point humans get to decide what we want to use our tools for. We’ll just have much more technological power in the future.
- rayiner 9y agoWe obsoleted hand drafting decades ago. Yet it takes ever bigger and more expensive teams to make airplanes.
- orf 9y agoSurely this is because the systems are more complex that you would have no hope designing using pens and pencils, even with the largest team in the world. As the capacity increases so does the complexity.

- TaylorAlexander 9y agoI’ve seen things like that. They’re awesome and I look forward to more cad programs having features like this. But it still takes a human to define the system requirements - we just get more powerful tools.
