If you are a programmer you should know that only basic code will be handled by automation and AI anytime soon. The basic shit that is so simple it can be Google. Anything above that is still beyond AI.

Again, people have been saying that about my profession for decades. Saying it will be outsourced too. It's never successfully done long term, someone always ends up having to go back and redo the work or double check it because of errors.
Try telling lawyers, doctors, engineers, research scientists, and any other job where interpretation of rules or regulations occur that their jobs will be automated any time soon. They will laugh at you.
Like the headlines of ChatGPT being able to pass a bunch of professional exams. It doesn't mean it's capable of actually performing the job. It's capable of using data it's been given to answer questions. Give nearly any human access to a database of relevant knowledge, not even connected to the internet, during an exam and they will also pass.
I'm all for automating skilled labor work, I want a future where humans can explore human existence without the required pursuit of soul crushing jobs for money. But acting like it's going to happen anytime soon is lying to yourself.
