Even as computer programmers, AI still requires that someone knowledgeable direct the working of AI--If you want to build anything slightly more complex than a "Hello World" program, you need someone who can direct that build and gauge whether or not the output was successful.
AI will only be as smart as the smartest humans, never smarter. It will still require smart humans to curate its actions and judge its outputs, certainly in the near to medium term. We will still need computer scientists to build better AI engines and storage and retrieval systems,
......AI will only be as smart as the smartest humans, never smarter.....
No, it will always be dumber than the smartest humans.
But it will be smart enough to accomplish many tasks (e.g., accounting).
AI is already smarter than the smartest humans and it’s not even close. But keep telling yourself that if it makes you happy.
