I think yes , it (chatgpt) is really can destroy some peoples job market. Chat, through which programming or coding related tasks can be done easily, it is really has been a boon for many as well as a pain for many.
Any skill can be divided into three parts: high level, mid level, lower level.H owever, those who are high level programmers or coders may not be able to beat by the ChatGPTs. However, those who are going to be at risk because of Chat GPT are the mid-level and low-level people, their work is generally being done through Chat GPT.
The only way out of this is to always develop your skills. To survive in today's market, you have to be at a high level.
I disagree with you . I am also a programmer but not really using it now but still I use mostly in automation it what I could say in AI is that it help me a lot interms of solving problem and making it an assistant in case there are problems. Also it is difficult to like rely on the code provided by AI as there are ton of outdated codes as well as not working properly so still you need to review it
