That sounds like the underwear gnomes' business plan.

More directly, any sort of AI which could do what you suggest would likely be more marketable as a "programmer in a box" tool, and sold that way for much higher profit.

Isn't that also what an advocate of cheating would say, when trying to convince someone that the ethics are not wrong?

Isn’t this hacker news? Not ethical dilemma news?
This is Hacker News.

Hacker has at least three distinct meanings: deeply knowledgeable software developers, shallowly knowledgeable programmers, and people who break into computer security systems. The 'Hacker' in 'Hacker News' refers to the first of this. I suspect you think it means the third.

There's no ethical dilemma here, so no, it isn't ethical dilemma news.

Nor is it really news. It's a bit more magical version of Danny Dunn and the Homework Machine from 1958 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Dunn_and_the_Homework_Ma... .
