To replace a developer you would need a human level AI, that is impossible for now.
You can improve the tech to do simple jobs and help me like
- review this code I wrote for potential corner cases
- generate some unit tests for this functions
- find some code in this giant project that does X . I know I wrote it 3 years ago but I have no idea how I named the function or maybe it was a different project.
- rewrite this old IE6 JS/jQuery into modern JAvascript
But IMO a tool that can do this would use LLM but you need an actual
valid code checker/interpretor to do a production ready code. I can't trust an LLM to update a giant piece of code without chainging something, I prefer a tool like Intellj refactoring that actual understand code.
