To me 'accretive work' means something you do at a lower level than your task at hand which by itself doesn't count progress, but rather lay the groundwork for it so it's compounding from there on. AI has nothing to do with this.
I think the argument is that AI changes the cost of creating that groundwork, not the definition of it
I mean a groundwork you can rely on for the rest of your code.
