Just got done listening to the podcast version of this. It reminded me about how many venues like Quora are full of people asking why it is so hard to find an engineer to implement their amazing idea. This theme has been in place for decades in software. It fundamentally misapprehends how progress happens - the job of thinking of the new ideas is an almost trivial part of it, it's the implementation that makes things go. It's the old "Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration" quote. We've been in a rut for a few decades where we focus on talking about things rather than doing things, and we aren't going to get our mojo back until we flip that and start focusing on doing things.
Even in places where AI has potential, the potential is entirely in pointing out something that someone has to DO.
