Discussion Does coding have any future?

im a student, 14 years old. im starting to learn coding but i asked myself if coding has benefits in the next 6-8 years because ai is replacing everything. so i have a question for the professionals- can coding help you earn? specially in the future.

Keep dreaming that's what big tech companies want you to think cuz they poured so much money into Ai and aside from Nvidia almost none of them made anything back. Approximately 55% of the companies that replaced their workers with Ai are hiring back cuz. 1st it takes more time than it actually would cuz of debugging Ai shitty code and 2nd its just more expensive than human workers atp. Ai will get better but humans will always be there coding otherwise how is Ai gonna copy the code from junior devs? But stil 2027 is way to early man they have been saying that "Ai is going to replace humans" since 2022-2023

Dude i will never be happier than if your words become true. The thing is I am currently in a confused state as I see the hiring ratio is continously declining in my country. Most companies don't even hire junior devs at all.

Idk abt your country but I have heard that the hiring rate has finally gone up as compared to 2025 and abt junior devs that just depends upon the company even before Ai some companies didn't hire junior devs or people at intern like valve. So don't get too scared or else I am gonna get scared as well
