    Also this interpretations is just wrong.

    Jacob is right that AI is changing the way that normal software development work gets done. It’s a new capability that has proven itself to be so useful that it clearly isn’t going away. Yes, it represents a significant shift in how we build software, it moves us further away from how the underlying stuff actually works, but the benefits exceed the risks.

    The benefits most certainly do not outweigh the “risks”, because they are in fact not at all risks, but an actively happening disaster of environmental, social and cognitive nature.

    Also the entire argument of “when you go deep enough nobody actually fully understands anything” is stupid. The people that actually understand the deepest are the people that are creating all our cutting edge technology. Modern processors wouldnt exist without people trying to go as deep as possible.
