> Models are starting to get good at ambiguity

That's fair, and something I've observed too. I wish I had written "the rest of us shouldn't freak out and quit software today".

But here's another data point: At the biotech I work for, writing good code has never been the bottleneck. I actually told my boss that a paid Claude vs free subscription wouldn't be that much value because even if it took every piece of code or algorithm we've ever written and 10x-ed the hell out of them, we'd still be bottlenecked by the biology and physics which dictates that we wait 24 days for our histology assay pipeline.

I have a hunch most fields outside of software are this way. And I'm personally not planning to quit anytime soon.
