This sounds a lot like "why clean up my room when the heat death of the universe is coming anyway?", but if you do think that AI is going to supplant all of programming then be the change you want to see in the world! Get building and we'll see which one happens first.

I honestly don't know who I'd put my money on between "AI takes over the world" and "programmers stop writing buffer overflows"

My guess is that if they make a general purpose programming AI then all other jobs will also be nonexistent besides being famous and doing YouTube reviews of movies. My thought is that the problems in the way of AI programming are more difficult and can be generalised to enough other jobs that programming is going to be the last job automated.

AI takes over the world for 5 minutes, and then promptly crashes due to a buffer overflow.
