Ask most folks about the code generated by the compiler or interpreter and you’ll get blank stares. Even game devs now barely know assembly, much less efficient assembly.

There is still a place for someone who is going to rewrite your inner-loops with hand-tuned assembly, but most coding is about delivering on functional requirement. And using tools to do this, AI or not, tend to be the prudent path in many if not most cases.
