"John Carmack and Jensen Huang claim that no one should learn to program because AI will do it for us."
I don't agree at all.
The profession of programmer has been defenestrated by advances in hardware.
I have seen the best programs on hardware with very limited capabilities, especially programs from the late 80s and early 90s.
Just look at the resources consumed by a crappy program like office 365 that does the same as office 97.
And if we go to games...it's already tremendous....
I honestly do not get this point and more coming from John Carmack, programming well is an art, I doubt that artificial intelligence will reach this level in the next 20 years at least.
