“Maybe my own tastes are saturated now” It might be saturated for smaller scopes of work, but it’s not hard to see the cracks when you scale up what you ask of SOTA models/agents. One example, to try and single shot prompt coding a ChatGPT equivalent chatbot. Sure it will spit something out, but the feature depth, UX subtitles, backend integration, and lots of pragmatic engineering decisions along the way will just not be baked. Another example is building a C compiler from scratch which Anthropic showed is still a struggle to do. Not that these these specific examples are important but just to point out scaling up expectations shows the cracks. It’s not just a model problem of course, better agents, orchestration features (like Dynamic Workflows mentioned in the post), all need to continue to evolve. Ar what point does my CS degree become totally useless is an open question. | ||

> At what point does my CS degree become totally useless is an open question. Why are you people saying all these things. We'll probably see long-distance space travel long before a degree in generic problem identification and solving becomes totally useless. | ||
