You insist that AI needs to be able to tackle hard problems, but can't say what qualifies as a hard problem. Can you see the problem with that? If you don't know what a hard problem looks like, how do you know the models can't tackle them?
It’s that it’s to able to tackle hard problems really. It’s because you have to give it the solution, and the patterns to follow, and then monitor it because it will go down weird paths.
If you’ve ever work directly with a user, you know how vague change requests can be. Try writing some vague prompts like that to the agent and see if it can solve them.
For some, writing down a (good?) specs and handing it to an agent is not very productive. Because by then, they already have an idea of the solution and can use the editor to have it done.
