Part 2/9:
The notion that 90% of code will be written by AI raises several questions: What type of code are we referring to? Is it professional code, hobbyist code, automated scripts, or all of the above? Who is responsible for this code—experienced developers or amateurs using AI tools? And importantly, has such a seismic shift in coding ever occurred before?
While it may seem absurd to think that professional developer jobs could be obsolete in a matter of months, historical context offers insights into how coding technologies have evolved. For instance, when the C programming language emerged, it was predicted that it would overshadow assembly language coding. However, C did not replace assembly; rather, it broadened the pool of developers who could write complex applications more efficiently.
