Will AI Agents Replace Engineers in the Future?

I wonder if AI agents will replace engineers in near future. I want to seek your opinions on this topic because we have engineers from diverse backgrounds and experiences.

AI agents are evolving fast. OpenAI’s agents and APIs can already write code, build landing pages and have access to the Internet through the browser. They can build code, test it, analyse it, find and fix bugs and even deploy it.

You may say - that it affects computer engineers and computer engineers can be replaced by AI.

Wait!

AI agents have the potential to replace Civl, Mechanical and Electrical engineers as well. Think of a future where AI robots take over the CAD, research, simulations and maintenance.

Some open questions for all of you:

• Which engineering roles are most at risk?

• Will software engineers become more like "AI supervisors" than actual coders?

• Can AI agents handle the complexity and unpredictability of real-world engineering projects?

• What should young engineers focus on learning to stay ahead?

Let me know!
