    The reason is that humans are expensive, and they don’t want to spend their time programming simply if they can get an AI to give them a functioning project with much less time and effort - at least, commercially.

        Look, if it only cost half as much to ship it, then it will only cost half as much to rewrite it, right?

        That tracks so well that I’m sure it will happen.

        Meta, Microsoft, and Google will still be worth trillions, Nvidia will be worth as much as all of them combined, and an entire wave of entrepreneurs taught to be dependent on these behemoths will be ruined.

        Sounds like the system is working as designed better than ever.
