You circled all the way back to the original point lol. The whole thrust of this conversation is "AI can be used to automate parts of the work, but you still need knowledgeable people to finish it". Just like "a concrete 3d printer can be used to automate parts of building a house, but you still need knowledgeable people to finish it."
That’s your whole point, but you’re making it in bizarre ways, like equating a concrete 3D printer with a hammer and saying that building a house frame is meaningless because there’s still more to do.
Your issue is that you’re arguing with a straw man that’s not present. No one said AI can do absolutely everything soup to nuts. It allows for more automation than ever before, full stop. And you’re still harping on “yeah but you still need people.” No shit.
Then you blundered into the rhetorical pit of expecting everyone to hear “3D printing a house” as patently ridiculous, when in fact enormous strides are being made on that.
