Which Programming Fields Will Still Require Human Developers, No Matter How Advanced AI Becomes?

Hello everyone, I have a question:

As AI continues to evolve and become more powerful, even decades into the future, which areas of programming are likely to remain unchanged—where humans will still need to write code themselves? I mean fields that are well-paid, have a high demand for developers, and are less likely to be replaced entirely by AI.

I think this is a concern many people share.

Also, in the future, let’s say after many years, will those who just finish learning programming still be able to get a job? Will companies still hire junior developers?

Right now, I don’t speak English well, and I’m using ChatGPT to write this. I learned programming without knowing English—specifically, I studied Front-End development. I’ve been learning for about two years, but I haven’t been able to find a job.

Not knowing English has held me back from many opportunities. So I’ve now decided to pause learning programming and focus on improving my English. I made a promise to myself: I won’t return to programming until my English reaches a high level and I’m able to think in English.

I really love programming, but right now, earning money is more important to me. I plan to return to programming in 2 or 3 years—of course, if my English gets better during that time.

Thank you in advance for your answers!

Once my English reaches an advanced level, would it be possible for me to choose one of the following fields?

  1. Embedded Systems Development
  2. Cybersecurity
  3. Low-Level Systems Programming
  4. Data Engineering & Backend Development
  5. AI and Machine Learning Engineering
  6. Mobile Development
  7. Desktop Development

Hey @Maksut
Even though AI is becoming advanced there are a lot of fields that will be human dominated like:

  1. Cybersecurity
  2. Embedded Systems and Hardware Programming
  3. Machine Learning

Stopping programming completely to learn English is not very wise in my opinion. You can do both simultaneously and ya English is also very important.

Don’t let programming slip out of your hands. Dedicate at least 20 min to it.

Hope this helps :sparkles:
