Impressive, also horrifying. I love what I do and if AI can do it better than that sucks.

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?

Right now, at least, I haven't found an AI capable of replacing a software engineer. Ive seen AI that can easily replace basic programmers, however.

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...
