I understand and agree with the feeling but then I also feel AI is too slow and too expensive.

My most successful autonomous runs have been expanding scrapers across a number of similar but different portals. I had examples and targets and it just kept searching for new ones and adding them.

But even doing basic ML auto research k have found it to be surprisingly poor except at trivial but useful augmentation of models. Yes it can implement things but somehow I am required a lot even though I set up a lot of framework around it.

My mental model is that it's very good at complex deterministic work like reading bad API docs and getting some connectors to work.

But perhaps I care less about being stuck in a local optimum there.
