I don’t think any company is seriously considering that, having played with chatgpt for a bit. Getting it to generate functional code requires so much guardrailing and validating the output that you basically need the domain knowledge anyhow as well as the ability to code to even use ai well as it is. I don’t believe it will ever get to a state where it can just be trusted to write good code for a complicated purpose without a skilled human shepherding it all along the way. The problems we solve are too bespoke a lot of the times. Its just a problem of how these models are fundamentally constructed: train on data and project new data onto it. Problems arise when you understand training sets are finite and contain things that already exist.

No, it will be more subtle. The features you will get in software products, as a user, will get AI-ified. Mostly for cost reasons. What it means, instead of building a proper feature that works correctly and handles all the edge cases, AI will be invoked to resolve the discrepancies and "make it work". It will mostly work, but will be less reliable and understandable. The end result will be more shifting of burden of errors from the software companies to users.

That is just dystopian enough to be believable.
