I don’t think that follows, nor do I think it will keep improving indefinitely. It will certainly continue to improve for a while.
We don’t need anything close to AGI to render the job “software engineer” as we know it today completely obsolete. Ever hear of a lorimer?
If it doesn't follow, why not?
The other possibility is, as you say, progress slows down before its better than humans. But then how is it replacing them? How does a worse horse replace horses?
