The only AI that would be amazing is one that would automatically suggest accurate ways to remedy a bug. No, Im not suggesting it tell me to add a null check that it failed on. Go through the code and figure out how a scenario that should never have been null in the first place, due to the business cases, ended up null. Look at my databases, services, etc. Honesty, it wouldnt be able to without knowing the business logic, so Im confident that AI won't be replacing me in my lifetime. The AI would have to attend every meeting to determine exactly the customer wants. Could you imagine how upset the customer would be after telling a AI what they think they want, compared to what the AI produces. This is a real life problem that happens with people everyday.

... okay a virtual stack tool would be neat. Like don't make me run the code to try to reproduce it, start building the state backwards and let me start to see what it would take to get there.

That sounds less like AI though and more like a comprehensive carefully built tool.
