Since the early days of my career, people keep predicting the demise of the programmer. I remember CASE tools, and then Microsoft with VB were signs of the end. Roll forward 30+ years in IT, and complexity keeps going up, and programmers are still needed.
Maybe I'm just old, but I'm probably going to retire, and AI is not going to replace any programmers.
From what I see, the quality of the software in Corporate America reassures me that programmers will have jobs for many decades to come.
