  • Will AI Replace Programmers? Exploring the Future of Coding
    Jan 7 2025
    In this episode of The Authentic AI Podcast, Michael Pierce discusses AI's influence on the realm of programming, debating whether AI tools pose a threat to programmers or merely provide an asset to their toolkit. The conversation centered around current AI-integrated tools used for software development, their abilities to automate tasks, and pose solutions, but also acknowledged their limitations. While programmers are crucial for strategic decision-making and ensuring ethical implementations, it also recognized the potential of an AI-augmented future. This future could see developers co-working with AI, increasing coding speed, and broadening accessibility via low-code or no-code platforms. However, programmers are encouraged to keep learning about AI tools and methodologies and enhance valuable soft skills. Ultimately, AI’s role is not to replace programmers, but rather aid in creating an AI-driven world with programmers adapting and thriving in it.
