The code that AI is good at currently is exactly common tasks.

Good luck getting it to write a competitive video card driver for Nvidia hardware or anything else that requires actual creative problem solving that isn’t github boilerplate.

It's only common among trained experts. For most people, even simple code is astonishingly difficult.

I personally get more value from AI when coding more complex and novel things. Not fully automated, but English has become the most valuable language for me when coding.

I think this is the blind spot that a lot of tech workers have.

To them, AI is years (decades?) away from being able to produce an Excel clone.

To average people, excel is just a tool to add up columns of numbers. Something AI is readily capable of today.

Jensen says they use AI to build their chips.

Color me surprised.

What about you, do you use AI currently?
