For experienced and capable developers AI is clearly a very useful tool. One issue for the future is it removes the need to have detailed low level knowledge, so newcomers/vibe coders don't develop the ability to spot and fix some of the errors it leaves behind and this is of particular concern when looking at security and robustness.
Other issues include the enormously detrimental impact upon the environment, but as in many areas of human activity, this seems to be of little concern to most.
And what about long term financial cost? At the moment all the AI companies are keen to allow users free or cheap access and certainly not covering their own costs. At some point, once everyone is hooked and reliant, they will want to make proper profits. This is how drug dealers and software companies have always worked.
