This was a good read.
I don’t share his belief that AI is anywhere near that good, but for coding, it’s pretty easily tested, except the user testing and such still need humans. You can’t rely on AI to give you something without surprises or that isn’t half-baked.
Will it get better? Sure, but it has plenty of problems that will stay.
I know of a firm that thinks AI can do its financials. It can’t, and with their investor expectations, it can’t do the very thing in the industry they said they would get done. They are desperate for money and have many, many hundreds of millions of dollars invested.
They just laid off people because of the current cash flow issues.
There are too many exceptions in this industry to expect AI can pull it together, in this decade, at least.
life’s messy
I have seen the ai get more powerful Oct 2025-jan2026. I tested the latest releases from claude and openai.
They are a giant step change power. What’s especially impressive is the way they can call tools, skills and anything else to get work done. So yeah. I believe this article.
I’m telling all my nephews to get up to speed on the newest claude and openai and use them for their workflows.
