Everyone talks about out how ai is going to do this and ai is going to do that, and how nobody's going to do anything anymore because all activities will be replaced by ai - even fun stuff.
That's ridiculous! It's just a tool. As long as people enjoy making things, they'll make things.
You might not have to manually manually program low-level details if you can have the tool do it, it just means you'll have more options for how to accomplish your project. You'll still have to prompt the ai to let it know what you want - that in itself is programming.
Also we might not want to trust ai to do certain things. That's up to you and me.
If ai gets smart enough that say, nobody is making programming languages for humans anymore, and you miss programming, you can just tell the ai to create you an IDE for whatever language. You can even have it create you a language with whatever syntax and features you want!
Stop worrying about ai - at least from a hobbyist's perspective of creating your own software like we do with QB64, it should only make life easier.
