AI is a tool. It may change how programmers do their job but programmers won't become obsolete until humans as a whole are.

- musicale 3y agoSo not for a few years then. Maybe.
- IshKebab 3y agoI don't know about that. Robots are still mostly shit so there are a load of manual jobs that would be needed after programmers are replaced by AI. I expect the oldest career would be the last one too. That said, I can't see programmers being actually fully replaced by AI until we have properly strong AI and at that point society as we know it is probably over.
- chmod775 3y agoRobots only look bad because we keep trying to make them work in spaces and processes optimized for bipedal meatbags, essentially forcing us to build a machine analog of that meatbag. Take a few steps back and you will realize most things are only done a certain way because it uniquely suits us. Many jobs also don't have to exist for a certain process to work and could be trivially automated, but people want them to exist (because we value human interaction and the presence of a human can be reassuring). Another reason that many things aren't automated is that human labor is comparatively cheap and upending your process, developing new machines is expensive. > Robots are still mostly shit so there are a load of manual jobs that would be needed after programmers are replaced by AI. Design your space with automation in mind, and you have the reverse situation. To illustrate: If you tried replacing machines in an automated factory line with humans, you may come to the conclusion that meatbags are mostly shit.
