Oh, neither do I. We see eye to eye on this point - it isn't good at the things people have learned to be good at, and that's a good thing.

What it excels at is empowering people with good ideas about architecture and function to explore them without being burdened by SCRUM, or managers, or other such trappings of large orgs. A solo dev, who has a hot take on a new way to structure a cluster or iterate on a dev tool, can just throw the pasta rather than spend tons of time nitpicking boilerplate and details with a team of 10. Someone who uses computers a lot but doesn't know how to do specific thing x or y can now discover that in seconds, with full documentation and annotations and (most importantly) links to relevant non-AI learning material.

What I feel like people are getting wrong most is this idea that AI is coming for your job and it's going to be a powerslave to the MBA types who can then kick the engineers out of the picture. It's not happening (if anything, enabling smaller teams to get more done is going to deprecate the large org outside of the places it's not needed). That's the bubble, and while gargantuan amounts of money go to these AI startups it's all going to fall on it's face when they realize that what AI allows us to do is bootstrap good projects without megalith VC bucks.
