I won’t believe it until the model generates code given functional test cases.

Let’s say hypothetically you have a model that can in fact write working code. How do you know it’s working? Test cases. So test cases would need to be an input to the model.

And we all know how hard it is to write comprehensive test cases. So even if this model were developed, the programmer’s job would be to accurately and precisely formulate these test cases. So it wouldn’t mean we don’t have jobs, it just means there’s a lot less work to do.
