For decades at regular intervals a new tech emerges and grand predictions are made that it will eliminate programmers. Not just the hype media either. I'll never forget one of my "professors" predicting this. After all this time I'm kind of sick of hearing it. Great for getting investor money etc.

All along the way the number of programmers has grown, both in absolute numbers and as a percentage of the workforce.
Agree 100%. I personally think Sam Altman and the Open AI Team are geniuses. I'm tired of saying it but I don't think we can really understand yet how it will positively disturb this world.
