I think there is a strong case that experienced developers can not be replaced by AI anytime soon. Where the danger lies is for junior developers fresh out of college. How are they supposed to become experienced developers if an AI can do the grunt work they normally get assigned?
It really doesn't help that AI companies are hype machines full of salesmen trying to hype up their product so you buy it. There have been a lot of amazing AI "success stories" that don't hold up under scrutiny.

Just because "well, maybe true for junior devs!" is a compromise over "AI will make all programmers obsolete!" it doesn't make it reasonable. It's still an extraordinary claim.
