I just want some externally verifiable numbers. If AI is a 10x improvement, we should be seeing new operating systems. If it’s 5x we should see new game engines. If it’s 2x we should see massive amounts of new features for popular open source projects.

If it’s less than that, then it’s more like adding syntax highlighting or moving from Java to Ruby on Rails. Both of those were nice, but people weren’t breathlessly shouting about being left behind.

I dont think that will happen, Not at least now. I dont even think AI would be suitable for creating an OS or a game engine. What seems to be increasing is no of saas products asking for subscriptions and most of the productivity, if any, is being used to add AI features to the apps.
