I don't know enough about AI or codes to know if this is accurate, but my understanding is that AI can pretty much regurgitate some coding for simple home-based tasks or maybe small business, but there's no real danger of them taking over from real coding, as they can only rely on extant material, and anything they'd make would have to be checked by a human who knows what they're on about anyway?
