Yes. Could AI generated code mean the death of coding? I'm wondering if, ultimately, you can get rid of the language as a part that you think about at all. Why not allow the AI to create a language that best suits it? Perhaps this would be hard to read for a human, but who cares? In fact, this would be a good thing for whoever owns the AI. The issue then will become - as you say - to represent the problem well at a higher level of abstraction. Representation of the problem and knowing what a 'right' answer should be. |

A rose by any other name...
"Coding" is the formalisation of ideas, algorithms, requirements, and constrains. This task is and will continue to be challenging. Whether you use "prompt engineering" or a formalised language doesn't matter all that much.
I'd be more interested to see whether such black-box model can solve programming problems like returning the best (by some criteria) N items from a read-only medium using a limited amount of resources (e.g. x amount of RAM and t milliseconds).
Given the immense amount of training data it's hard to distinguish a clever search method with some mixing and matching (i.e. copy-paste-programming) from general problem solving abilities.
