Would love an example because no one has ever been able to give a coding example that AI isn’t helpful for. I had one person on linked in try claim their undocumented audio hardware won’t work with ai but when we got ai to probe it and build docs it ended up solving a bunch of complex bugs they couldn’t fix.
Anyway the use case for me is to realize a new visual style through graphics programming. It's a lot less measurable for an interative AI agent than "Meet this hardware specification from a device with a discoverable API"
I have no doubt AI could create a LOT of variations on "a new visual style" but it's less controllable than just doing it yourself.
Btw, did you "understand" the sound driver after the AI coded it? Could you modify it without further help?
I also think AI can replace non-coding artitects, and probably most middle management type jobs (my company has 6 levels of management between the CEO and "individual contributors" in my area (8 counting inclusivity)).
That's a lot of management levels, and every level has to be paid more than the level they manage as a fraud disincentive. So that's a lot of money...
