This is the same kind of argument guys who wrote assembler code for time and security critical embedded systems made against compilers back in the 1990's. I remember those exact discussions.

And they had valid points for that time. It didn't stop people from using compilers in appropriate situations. And it didn't stop compiler and language development to the point assembler is used only in relatively rare situations today. But it is still used and provide jobs. But it's been passed by for the most part in industry.

AI is just another abstraction layer that is being added that is good enough in enough situations that it's worthwhile. But the landscape is changing and will continue to change in the years and decades to come.
