We’re at AI’s 80s brick cell phone stage right now, there’s a lot of improvement to come.
It seems it’s very hard to make good decisions about how to higher level things (modules, classes, dependency hierarchies etc.) without that context, and the programmer is forced to give the tool very specific instructions in order to compensate. At some point the instructions just need to be specific enough that you might as well be writing code again.
I have no doubt they'll get there eventually, but it seems like being able to write entire projects effectively might coincide with the arrival of true AGI. There's just so much context to consider.

It’s always been about the games for me. Exclusives really matter.
I wish the media would stop treating the biggest, most notable orgs as the whole industry. They’re the tip of a very large iceberg.
Yes, not every company or every role is going to go 100% remote, but there’s been a seismic shift since the pandemic that isn’t going to be undone.
14% of people in UK are skipping meals because they can’t afford food right now.
