Months (years?) of publicity from AI companies telling us that the AI is nearing AGI and will replace programmers. Some people are excited about that future and want it now.

In reality, LLMs can (currently) build worse versions of things that already exist: a worse database than SQL, a worse C compiler than GCC, a worse website than one done by a human. I'd really like to see some agent create a better version of something that already exists, or, at least, something relatively novel.
