Yes I do think not all people could fix it with Youtube. My grandma couldn't for example. I had a neigbor come for help with something like that too.

Is not that hard to understan mate. Maybe put my comment in the LLM so you can get it.

What is your point again?

My analogy holds up. Anyone could type "optimize my PostgreSQL database by editing the configuration file" into an LLM, but most people won't - same as most people won't watch YouTube to figure out how to unblock a sink.

If you don't like the sink analogy what analogy would you use instead for this? I'm confident there's a "people could learn X from YouTube but chose to pay someone else instead" that's more effective than the sink one.

You're exactly right (original commenter here). I began my career in professional software engineering in 1998. I've despaired that trained monkeys could probably wreck this part of the economy for over 25 years. But we're still here. :D
