This piece examines the potential impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on programming and various industries, drawing parallels to the Industrial Revolution and the anxieties of the Luddites regarding automation. It discusses how past technological advancements led to job displacement but also the creation of new roles, suggesting a similar pattern might emerge with AI. Ultimately, we anticipate significant shifts in programming practices, with programmers becoming more involved in design rather than code implementation, acknowledging that the most disruptive AI technologies are yet to fully materialize.
