In the not too distant future, the Artificial Intelligence (AI) promises to revolutionize the programming market and transform the way we work.
In a recent interview, Stability AI CEO Emad Mostaque stated that within five years there will be no more demand for human programmers. This statement has generated both fear and expectation.

The possible end of human programmers
According to Mostaque, around 41% of the codes are already being developed by AI systems. This shift has intensified more and more, and in five years the transition will be complete.
Currently, although the codes generated by AI are not as excellent as those produced by human programmers, they already manage to reach a satisfactory average level. Furthermore, the speed at which algorithms can create code is much greater than that of conventional developers.
The dependence on AI is already a reality for many programmers. According to a StackOverflow survey, 70% of respondents already use or plan to use AI in their development projects. This technology provides faster and more efficient work, bringing benefits clear to the market.
Other professions affected by AI
However, this change will not be limited to programmers only. Mostaque claims that, in five to ten years, other professions will also be threatened by AI.
Photographers, graphic designers and illustrators may find themselves in a vulnerable position as AI will be able to create anything imaginable with perfect visual quality and in real time.
In addition, companies are also adapting to this new reality. IBM CEO Arvind Krishna has announced that the hiring of professionals whose roles can be replaced by AI will be suspended soon.
He estimates that over a five-year period, 30% of IBM's workforce could be replaced by AI and automation.
Technological evolution: dynamic and unpredictable
Despite the bold predictions, it is important to consider whether this scenario will actually materialize within the stipulated period. After all, the evolution of technology is dynamic and often unpredictable.
However, there is no denying that AI is increasingly impacting the way we work and raising questions about the future of the job market.
The future has begun: get ready
In any case, it is possible to say that human programmers may face a radical change in the coming years, with the gradual replacement by AI systems. And, as mentioned above, this transformation is not limited to the schedule, but it can also affect other creative areas.
Companies need to adapt to this new reality and rethink their hiring strategies. The future is coming, and AI will play a key role in how we work and create in the future.
