AI Godfather Geoffrey Hinton warns: Mid-level programmers could be replaced by AI soon, but CS degrees will remain valuable

Geoffrey Hinton, often referred to as the Godfather of AI says computer science degrees will continue to stay relevant. He said this in context of Artificial Intelligence becoming more advanced with each passing day and several experts calling out the irrevelance of software engineers. Partly due to emergence of trends like ”Vibe Coding”. However he also says mid-level programming jobs are not safe and will very likely be taken over by AI’s.
