AI tools like GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT are changing how software is built, but they are unlikely to fully replace software engineers. AI can help write code, fix bugs, and speed up development. However, engineers are still needed for problem-solving, system design, creativity, and understanding real-world needs. Most experts believe AI will assist developers rather than replace them.

Already AI tools are able to create code and debugs, as well as automate repetitive tasks. Other specialists even assume that in the nearest future, AI will be able to deal with the vast majority of coding work, and engineers will be invited to analyze and control AI-written code.
