Could AI generated code eventually replace software developers - opinions

[Kieran88]

AI coding tools are improving at an incredible pace and many developers are already using them daily. Some people believe routine programming work will disappear while others argue human oversight will always remain essential. The conversation has become especially intense in startup environments

A major issue is code reliability and maintainability over long projects. AI can generate fast results but debugging complex systems still requires experience and context awareness. Many developers now see AI as a productivity multiplier instead of a replacement
