No, I'm subscribed to the idea that AI is basically akin to a calculator in the realm of mathematics. Calculators didn't make mathematicians and their formulas obsolete, it just served as a really good tool for those things. These types of advancements raise the bar for what the standard is, but if you can keep up and use it to create new and better ideas it won't make you obsolete. For example, you have people who are "human calculators" that can basically calculate anything in their head. Yes, a calculator would render people like this obsolete, even though they are very impressive, but there is obviously much more to math than that. Same goes for programming. I see programming languages as a creative tool, it's hard to make something like that completely obsolete. You still need a human on the other side inputting some sort of idea or intention. Or at least that's what I think with my limited knowledge on coding at this point. I'm even more confident about this when it comes to game development, because it's such a creative endeavor. AI is basically a tool you can use for speeding up creativity, that's essentially how I see it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
