Before Grandmaster Garry Kasparov was defeated by IBM’s Deep Blue, computers had little chance against humans in chess. Deep Blue’s victory marked a turning point: initially, only Grandmasters could compete with chess engines. A decade later, no human could match engines like Stockfish. Two decades on, high-level chess became a battle of computer versus computer, with humans entirely out of the equation(at above 3000 Elo chess).
A similar trajectory can be seen in AI and programming. The GPT-4o model initially scored 11% in Codeforces competitions, but by the end of the year, its successor, O1 fine tuned model, achieved a remarkable 93%(The training data was NOT Codeforces questions, they allowed some 50 submissions even humans are allowed many submissions but points would be deducted for submissions).
If we apply the same trend observed in chess, what will the future hold for programming? With multi-AI agents increasingly working autonomously, coding is becoming more automated by the day. As these models continue to improve year after year, is there a future for coding jobs 10 years from now or since coding would become easier and easier that it would pay less like minimum wage?
