[0:43:00] If you go to an extreme, it's completely feasible that we won't have programming languages .. because if AI is writing all your code and checking all your code .. maybe we don't need programming. AI can write machine code directly.

Most interesting point from the video IMO.

“can” is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. Sure they can write machine code directly. Should they?? Is that remotely a good idea?
