That's my assumption as well - the human programmers will far more productive, but they'll still be required because there's no way we can take the guard rails off and let the AI build - it'll build wrong unit tests for wrong functions which create wrong programs and will require humans to get it back on track.

Is your opinion time bounded to 5 years? 20 years? 100 years? Forever?

I don't think anyone can say what's going to happen in 10 years, but what I do know is if you look back people have been saying programmers will be obsolete in 10 years for way longer than a decade.

I think it is really hard to say where all this goes right now when we currently don't even have good quantitative reasoning.

10 years ago we were still working on MNIST prediction accuracy. 10 years forward from here all bets are off. If the model has super human quantitative reasoning and a mastery of language I am not sure how much programming we will be doing compared to moving to a higher level of abstraction.

On the other hand, I think there will be so many new software jobs because of the volume of software built over the next 20 years. The volume of software built over the next 20 years is probably unimaginable sitting where we are.
