It’s quite conceivable that professional programming as we know it might vanish shortly. Elon Musk forecasts that by the close of 2026, the direct act of coding will be obsolete, as artificial intelligence will handle everything.
In a widely circulated video clip, he asserts that attempting to program will become pointless by the end of 2026, since AI will be capable of producing binary code immediately, bypassing the need for source code, compilation, and conventional development workflows.

“I anticipate that by the end of this year, people won’t even bother attempting to code. AI will just generate the binary file directly. The AI will be able to produce a much slicker binary than any compiler could manage,” the billionaire stated.
The CEO of X and founder of xAI, Elon Musk, shared that a new iteration of the Grok neural network, designated Grok 4.20, is slated for release this very week. He suggested this update would represent a “major leap forward” compared to the existing version 4.1.
Previously, he responded to a post on the X social platform which claimed that as Elon amasses trillions, he will enable numerous individuals to become millionaires and even billionaires.
