I love claims like that. Back in the day, drum machines were going to
replace drummers. And CDs would replace vinyl. Neither happened. Yes,
drum machines are more common today. Yes, there are more CDs printed
than vinyl records. But drummers and vinyl records are still around.

I'm sure ChatGPT can produce working, maybe even optimized code. But
there will still be programmers as long as there are computers.
