Is this satire? That's my most charitable interpretation.

This smells like it was written by someone who doesn't actually write code. How does one make the logic leap that any code AI is able to write, is only because that code is "trivial"? The author doesn't even bother defending that claim.

I suppose the only other charitable interpretation would be to say, "Well then 99% of the code I'm paid to write is 'trivial'." If that's the case, then you have to separate "code as means to an end" (which is clearly well within the wheelhouse of AI) from "code as a mathematical art" which is okay, but the latter doesn't pay my bills or create value for my clients.
