I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that the vast majority of code was buggy before AI and AGI is close simply because the bar that humans set for intelligence is pretty low.
Yeah if you're an expert you can spot some of the bugs in AI-generated code as easily as you can spot the same bugs in the average developer's average code. Of course, there will be bugs you don't see, including all the extant bugs in your own handwritten code...
I think AI has a way of automating away the low quality code that the vast majority of our industry is built upon and churns out all the time. And the vast majority of code and codebases is just hmm someone pays us to make it, it doesn't have to be particularly stellar...? And that is what will stop being paid for.
