Why someone would need to? Do the product/business people who order creating something understand how it is done and what is Git, a webserver etc.? It is based on trust and if you can show the AI system can consistently achieve at least humanlike quality and speed on almost any development task then there is no need to have a technical person in the loop.
You can just make websites on pre-approved list.
On what do you base this? Is there some upper bound to the potential in AI reasoning that bounds it skill to creating anything more complex? I think it is on the contrary - it is humans who are bound by our biological and evolutionary hard limits, the machine is not.
If we mean that the current way of doing things will lead to that… I have strong doubts.
Person: I want A
AI: Here's B
Person: No, I wanted A
AI: I'm sorry. Let me correct that... Here's B
.. ad nauseum.
Or alternatively:
Person: <reasonable request>
AI: I'm sorry, I can't do that
Business already doesn't know what security is, they will jump head first into everything which allows them to get rid of those weird developer dudes which they have to cater to and give a lot of money.
I personally would also assume that there might be a new programming language AI will invent. Something faster, more optimized for AI.
GPT-5 will tell us in summer were we at
How stable and secure all of this will be though is another question. A rhetorical one.
Sure, and who is supposed to understand the code written by AI when we retire? Since writing code by typing on a keyboard will apparently cease to exist, who will write prompts for an AI and put the code together?
Person: Hey AI, build me a website that does a, b and c.
AI: Here you go.
Person: Looks like magic to me, what do I do with all this text?
AI: Push it to Git and deploy it to a web server.
Person: What is a web server? What is a Git?
AI: ... let me google that for you.
Yeah, I'm just not seeing it play down as in the conversation above.
