Lately, there’s been a lot of talk about whether AI will replace software engineers. Big names are fueling the conversation. Salesforce’s CEO claims they won’t hire new engineers in 2025 because AI tools have increased their productivity by 30%. Mark Zuckerberg said that AI in 2025 will be able to do a mid-level engineer’s job.

Let’s analyze what AI can and can’t do today, and how you can prepare yourself for the future.
