No, absolutely not. All they need to do is ask AI to write it for them, and chuck all the bits it generates in a file somewhere and compile it. It'll work perfectly first time - so no need to even test it!
In fact, if you add "in Python" to the AI requests, you don't even need to compile it, coz it's interpreted and can't have any compiler errors! Just ship that sucker, and grab your big pay cheque!
Then when your boss stops screaming at you long enough to catch his breath, call him an ambulance and dump the whole code on QA and say "it don't work". They'll fix it in a jiffy!

COBOL was supposed to let "ordinary businessmen" program in something close to English.
In my time (the last 40-odd years) as a programmer/software engineer, I've seen fourth-generation, fifth-generation, "expert systems", "machine learning", and now "AI" all come and go, each promising to end the need for programmers.
It may happen someday, but I'll believe it when I see it.

D-Link won't be patching vulnerable NAS devices because they're no longer supported. It's probably time to buy a new NAS anyway
Maybe it's me being paranoid, but do people hang their NAS where the internet can see them?

You might be paranoid, but it doesn't mean that you are not being followed.

My childhood obsession with non-edible scented things has come full circle. Does it come in 'Burning insulation' scent?
If so, I might already be using it. ;(

Just Baldur’s Gate 3, but I suspect my machine is a bit underpowered for it (even with the graphics turned way down)

You can connect to an IRC server, chat and read messages, all from the comfort of your motherboard’s pre-boot environment. "Some men just want to watch the world burn."

WTE would I want my computer's motherboard communicating over the 'net? aren't there enough security breaches available at the O/S level?

Since the early days of the Internet, the role of software has become increasingly important, to the point where our world now heavily relies on it. Old man available, present clouds. It's time for some shouting.

One reason is change for the sake of change. We've all used perfectly functional software only to have it change one day into a buggy UI mess.

It's the natural order of things as the next generation has little regard for what got the whole machine to this point. You can expect a continuation of many critical and not so critical (if you don't look) system failures to continue.
Best just enjoy the ride.

Adecco Group launched a survey that predicts AI will lead to fewer jobs for many firms in the next five years. Possibly the most shocking news since the last time I posted about a Windows Update gone bad

The only sad part is that probably the jobs getting cut will be the wrong ones in most of the times.
And that when they realize it, will probably be too late. Ending in more jobs lost, when companies close.

Indexing low-quality books may mean the language research tool Ngram will also get trash results. Pounded in the search by AI
However, the good Dr. Chuck Tingle, esq definitely doesn't fit in the category of "bad AI-written works". I definitely enjoyed Camp Damascus.
And Google definitely needs (/s) something to reduce the quality of their search results these days.
