No it won't (or not yet?). I'm a bit in the same shoes: I'm not a dev, I write some scripts from time to time, in Python or for a proprietary statistical analysis suite, and the frequency at which I code do not allow me to remember enough things by heart, but I can navigate an AI output.

The issue here is not so much that AI sucks at everything. The issue is AI sucks at complex tasks and need monitoring. For occasional scripters, it's very helpful: scripts are short enough you don't spend hours to figure what it did, and it saves you from going back to the syntax of all the functions you need as you don't code enough to remember them.

But let's be real: this is a niche usage, and it won't save the AI industry from its bubble burst.
