No, they won't. People have been saying this for decades: COBOL replaced assembly language programming, but not programmers. SQL replaced a lot of COBOL code, but not programmers. Then there were systems like "Software through Pictures". Now we have "no code" and "low code" that allows people to build some simple applications. This is all based on a misunderstanding of the real work of programmers -- figuring out what the users really want including the edge cases.
