Will AI Replace Me as a Developer?

No Need To Learn Coding, Anybody Can Be A Programmer With Technology.

— NVIDIA’s CEO, Jensen Huang

Nvidia became one of the most valuable companies of the decade. First with crypto in 2017, then with AI in 2022. Each time, their GPUs became the center of global hype. So when their CEO says “anyone can be a programmer now,” it’s worth thinking about.

Can this opinion be real in the future? Most likely yes. But there is no chance of reaching that level in a few years. And yet even the most advanced LLMs still hallucinate, give wrong answers, or get stuck behind “ethical” filters. They can sound smart but they’re not reliable.

Whenever I hear the phrase “AI will replace programmers”, I realize that the people who say this are not programmers or are beginners.

Code has to be 100% accurate. There’s no room for “close enough”. That’s the reason AI can’t end programming. It still produces wrong information, sometimes doesn’t even understand your code.

LLMs work by predicting the probabilities of the next letter, word, or sentence. It can’t design a full system that spans multiple apps, stays secure, avoids bugs, and hits 95% test coverage.

If you are a programmer that knows only React and Tailwind, you are replaceable with millions of people already.
