I like to think we are simply at the next step of abstraction that will help explode faster development across the board. It is well overdue. Think of the step from compiled languages to scripting languages - so many engineers (myself included) know fuck-all about about garbage collection and pointers, but we can still get useful work done. For some things, you want or need to use a compiled language for greater control/speed.

Even with the rapid rise of AI, I think we will be stuck at this stage for quite a while. Yes, AI will be able to made a button for your app or make your app completely, but what people always want is greater control. Someone needs to be making business decisions about how things work and interact, or how things are architected for anticipated load. So a lot of easy and repetitive work goes away but demand shifts to more deep tech engineers and more business/design engineers.
