AI can already replace programmers in very basic tasks. This is not true for anything more complex. The 41% of AI-generated code is at a 41% because AI can generate things very quickly. That doesn't say anything about its quality and usefulness. For all we know it could just be some people trolling. Programmers have been around for decades. Your claim is that they are no longer needed in half a decade. That implies that AI will be able to improve itself and make better versions of itself continuously, in other words, achieve singularity. I have a very hard time believing this.
