It depend on what you mean by programming, for me as a physicist its always been about building systems, ask chatgpt to build code for an optical step generator for laser to burn a diffraction grating in a fiber, I wouldn't know how far you would get, perhaps it would help you in the mundane details but programming the micro-controllers for the system I am pretty sure you need the human element mainly due to the diversity of the components and the need to calibrate for the response functions of the analogue components like non linear crystals, extrapolate this in the physics domain, would you want AI writing the controls systems for nuclear reactors? I am sure AI can handle the javascript for a web application but thats a small subset of programming where there happens to be a lot of training data they can steal. Sadly AI is coming for a lot of people before programmers, hopefully the project managers will be the first up against the wall.
