Google Colab will soon introduce AI coding features
I really think the current paradigm of literally typing if else logic all day into programs, and then getting paid huge money to do so will go away. Programming is going to be much higher level and accessible, though still complex. It will take five years or so.<p>Edit:<p>My prediction is essentially that:<p>You give it a set of requirements for an api, with edge conditions written in plain English. Test cases are provided. And the vanilla api is generated. We aren’t that far from this. It’s going to happen. Programmers may go in and tweak the generated code. When the requirements change, you pass in the old code as context.<p>Complex software will require human coding. But most programmers are in denial about how complex the code they’re writing actually is.<p>Requimemts gathering is notoriously tricky, but you won’t need engineers for it.
