While AI tools like GitHub Copilot can automate simple coding tasks, Professor Andrew Ng argues that AI is unlikely to fully automate the job of a skilled software engineer anytime soon since programming requires a lot of subjective human judgment, intuition, communication skills, and creative problem-solving ability that AI lacks. Rather than resisting AI, forward-thinking developers are focused on harnessing AI to augment their work, automating tedious tasks so engineers can spend more time on complex design challenges. Excellent software engineers will adapt to leverage AI, not be replaced by it.
