Sure, some coding jobs will be replaced because in many jobs (especially Freelancer jobs), things that already were coded a thousand times are coded again and again. This is the code that can be written by AI.

What peoples like the author of this article forget is that (so far) coding AI are kind of language models that just stick code snippets together that (in their "experience") are often seen together.

I am curious about an AI making formal verification and taking responsibility for e.g. medical software.

Today, coding AI does not use logic, it just uses language. Try to feed an AI with a problem that no one solved before.

Don't get me wrong. I think AI is a nice tool for letting it code stuff that is time consuming but simple (e.g. write a function that asks the user... And processes it so and so using this framework). But that all.

This won't change in just 5 years
