I don't think AI will replace programmers but complement them. I don't think the job description of a programmer will go away so a "programmer" still needs to know how to program.
Agreed. I've been using AI as part of my general IT work for the past year. My take is its like a bright 15 year old that has very limited real world knowledge. But it has a superpower: They can read and summarize very long detailed technical information almost instantly.
In the end, this new assistant is useful for generating boilerplate / templates. However, the only way to use it in production is for a human to direct it in a step-by-step fashion.

I agree with this and most of your take, with one caveat: it was a bright 15 y/o, now it's a bright 17 y/o, and that trend is going to continue. People who don't adapt to this intelligence quasi-Moore's law are in for a bad time.
