You'd never get anything new or innovative if we only relied on AI for programming. The landscape for how things are done is always changing. Even in 6 months time things will be outdated and insecure.

The only jobs that were going to lose are the underpaid "You're a programmer, I have an idea for an app, could you do it for me?" Kind of jobs. Which are always shit anyway.
