It's not really that much worse than C++ when you think about it.

This is something I explained to a client of mine. I do see AI as part of the Future in software development, but it won't replace programming as it is just the most precise way to tell a computer how you want things to work.

I think / hope AI will help get rid of a lot of boilerplate code. Where you'll have AI driven programming languages that only require you to write business logic and define architectural requirements and AI can handle all the details of how it connects, where to fetch and send the data and to do it efficiently
