Because it’s not about being “good at things”. You missed the whole point of the article. It’s not about AI vs. human capabilities, even a human could not build software if they are not in the right context.

Here’s an example: back in the 2000s, everyone was afraid programming was going to get outsourced to India or other countries. It didn’t happen, Sillicon Valley continues to spend billions to import engineers to work in person even though it’s 10x cheaper to hire remote outsourcers in India who are just as skilled programmers. Why do they spend 10x to move physical bodies to the office? Because it’s impossible to write good software without being in the physical context of the problem domain and team.

Similarly you cannot outsource to AI, because it cannot have complete context. No matter how good AI is, the problem is not mechanically solvable.
