Seems like with all AI-enabling and just works out of the box experiences with VSCode and alike, makes GNU Emacs absolete. I'm aware of AI packages for GNU Emacs, but don't think is worth the investiement so much; I would mostly save it for org mode, TUI, and some other few packages. But for programming, it doesn't seem lile worth the investment, and use VSCode instead.
Certainly knowing things will always be valuable - but the effect of assistants and LLMs may be to change what it is valuable to know by devaluing a great heap of current generation’s programmers’s stock and trade.
As an addenda: by value in the above I mean “instrumental value” or more specifically, valuable to the rich who want to exploit the skills of others to become yet richer. There is always intrinsic value to knowing for the people who love to know.

That's also a very similar setup I have. Nothing can replace org-mode, so at least Emacs will have to stay for that. Also using it in server mode is nice to reopen a new window in an instance. I also have many tiny scripts I made through out the years to generate random things for work, and also query the radio station we listen to give my the artist and song title that is playing. Can't work without those ^^
