I'm a programmer that doesn't know all that much about cybersecurity beyond the basic.

What do you guys think of AI pentesting? Is it made completely redundant by tools or is it going to be a viable strategy for pentesting?

As with most things, I expect it'll help the guys who know what they're doing do their thing faster and more efficiently.

I don't expect it to replace nor be a effective substitute for a properly trained pen tester.

It might be helpful to developers to fast track security testing, but I think there's already a wide array of "non-AI" tools that accomplish that? Don't know a lot about how it.couod affect that side of things.
