The End of Programming as We Know It
Briefly

The article discusses the evolving nature of programming and asserts that while AI will change the landscape, it will not lead to the extinction of software development jobs. The history of programming shows a continuous progression from low-level binary code to higher-level languages, making programming more accessible. Innovations like interpreted languages and consumer operating systems democratized coding, enabling a wider range of people to participate. Therefore, AI will serve as a tool that transforms how developers work rather than replacing them altogether.
The development of higher-level programming languages revolutionized coding, gradually shifting programmers away from low-level machine instructions to more user-friendly, abstracted languages.
AI will change programming, but instead of eliminating jobs, it will transform how developers work, much like past innovations that made coding more accessible.
