The shitty thing about learning programming now, is by the time you're job ready entry level positions will be either gone or much less skilled leading to competition and lower wage. I was relearning it myself and when Codex was shown to correct its own errors and test, I gave up. Maybe I'm wrong and it's foolish to move on, but you only get one shot at life and I'm not wasting that amount of time on something AI has a direct scope on today.

Not a single manager would allow pushing automated code to production servers so i think people with programing skills will still be needed even if most of the code will be automated in the future, to review and to troubleschoot etc. There is much more to IT project then just writing code.

Yea but that still reduces the workload a ton so there will be way too many programmers for the number of jobs.

Or maybe there will be right ammount of programmers, right now a lot of projects cant start because managers cant find devs and infrastructure/devops people so i wouldnt be suprised that with reduced cost and team size actually a lot more projects could start.

Same with manufacturing automation, we need to remebmer that a lot of people still dont have fridges, washing machines etc so there is a lot of room to grow a cost will decrease

Yeah this is what I'm saying. People will argue that you can just keep outputting more and more with extra productivity but that doesn't make sense economically. Shareholders don't care where the profit comes from for that quarter, and paying fewer wages is a good boost to net profit.
