I can only comment on my own field, programming. AI can write code at a junior level, and sometimes help explain and debug. The hard part of programming—the expertise that comes from experience—happens when gathering and defining requirements. Writing code takes skill but got more automated over time, from compilers to IDEs to LLMs. Getting to “almost working” with AI coding looks impressive, but like a car missing only one wheel it has zero utility. AI coding looks impressive to people who could not write code at all. It seems less impressive to those who can. I won’t call it useless but at this point the time spent chasing down hallucinated library functions and API endpoints, and auditing code for security problems and missing edge cases more than offsets any benefit for experienced programmers. Maybe it will get better over time.
