Yes! Let's spend 100x the resources on AI to do what a PID controller or Kalman filter can do.

I’m less scared about 100x the resources (in most applications) in exchange for decreasing programmer time / need.

What worries me far more is the lack of formalism around risk / boundary cases by undertrained teams using modern AI solutions.

Anyone building on top of a thing should either understand (a) how it’s built in detail or (b) its specifications and behavior in detail.

Most of these teams understand neither about LLMs.

That's where my 100x comes from, not from the dev effort but from the debugging of issues of an unknown black box.
