Eventually it will be 90% fix rate and everyone cheering for the 12% will be flipping burgers instead.

Flipping burgers will be automated long before AI fixes any relevant number of bug reports.
Might be, still the point I was trying to make remains.
I still think this is a long way off, but it definitely ties into UBI etc and improvement of the general human condition, taxing the rich, restricting investment on protected things like housing and public industries like water, electricity, healthcare and internet.

What's funny is that people on here & tech people in general seem to be the most averse to improving equity between all humans/stopping the obscenely rich from abusing and twisting the system. Do many HN peeps believe they're all somehow gonna become billionaires one day?

Why would a human ever flip a burger at that point? It's not a particularly difficult task for a robot.

Unclogging sewers on the other hand…
