I think it depends. As a programmer, you really should carefully watch the development, and adapt to it. It might be that the way programmers work in 10 or 20 years will really be quite different than how we work now. Maybe we just talk to some AI and give it high-level instructions on how to design some system, speak about bugs, etc, and the actual coding, debugging, etc is delegated to the AI. So your role transitions more into management. Or maybe that's not realistic, and it will look somehow different. In any case, I think it will change, and you should be prepared to adapt to it. If you ignore the whole development, your job might indeed be at risk, or just be at much lower value.
