> while a human you can more or less dump them everything you sit on, and let them shift it through, and they'll mostly make it out OK

i dont see why software engineers are paid so well, and are so hard to hire?

just dump a bunch of requirements on a homeless person and itll just work out

I have no idea what point you're making here.

He's making the point that the idea that "with a human you can more or less dump them everything you sit on, and let them shift it through, and they'll mostly make it out OK" is wrong.

Humans absolutely need lots of training to be able to get this dump and do it right, and even when trained, different humans or humans at different coding tasks can be totally way worse and way better at it.
