I'm not changing goalposts, I was responding to what you said about AI spitting out something wrong and you spending 3 hours debugging it.
My original point about not needing fundamentals would obviously require AI to, y'know, not hallucinate errors that take three hours to debug. We're clearly not there yet. The original goalposts remain the same.
Since human conversations often flow from one topic to another, in addition to the goal post of "not needing fundamentals" in my original post, my second post introduced a goalpost of "being broadly useful". You're correct that it's not the same goalpost as in my first comment, which is not unexpected, as the comment in question is also not my first comment.
AI that writes a bash script doesn't need to be better than an experienced engineer. It doesn't even need to be better than a junior engineer.
It just needs to be better than Stack Overflow.
That bar is really not far away.
