Sure, you can now be fuzzy with the input you give to computers, but in return the computer will ALSO be fuzzy with the answer it gives back. That's the drawback of modern AI.

It can give back code though. It might be wrong, but it won’t be ambiguous.

    Code is very often ambiguous (even more so in programming languages that play fast and loose with types).

    Relative lack of ambiguity is a very easy way to tell who on your team is a senior developer

  • The output is also often quite simple to check...

    • For images and other media, yes. Does it look right?

      Program correctness is incredibly difficult - arguably the biggest problem in the industry.
