    5: Programming is no longer fun

    I feel like this is both true and not true for me. I like solving problems, and I also like seeing the results (such as the working software). AI development tools can often help you reach the goal of having working software faster than without it, and I do like that aspect of it. Also, AI development tools can be used to help with tedious work, such as fixing build issues (which I think is a good thing) and to examine the project for very difficult problems that you may be struggling with - The AI could end up finding the needle in the haystack or whatever is causing a difficult issue you're facing.

    When you're working with crappy models to try to get working code, you're still solving problems :). Just different kinds of problems.
