I guess the flip side to that is the iterative conversation to develop these specifications is exactly what AI chatbots are good at.
It's also the main reason why very structured AI agent orchestration for software engineering modelled on rigid processes fails to really provide much value.
I suspect that the reason AI chatbots are not very good at developing such specifications is that they don’t build a domain model in their “head” — the only models they have are already hardcoded in their weights. A human learning a domain, on the other hand, forms new neural connections representing the model of the domain that they build in their head.
