Cope harder. A year and a half ago, people were mocking Devin for claiming that AI could develop software at all. Yet here we are, when AI is developing most commercial software.
nonsequitur
The point is, even if a model or tool doesn't have advertised features today, it soon will. We're in a breathtakingly rapid cycle, and even if software engineering isn't abolished "six months from now", in 10 years the world will look vastly different for people who touch computers for a living.
That's a very weird statement to make. There are trillions of dollars going into this crap; at this point anything but "breathtaking" advancement would be an utter, abject failure.

No one is blind to the differences between GPT3 and whatever this week's new model is. That does _not_ mean that people are off the hook to make whatever claims they want about the capabilities with no verification. Language still means something, if you say "software engineering will be abolished six months from now" and it isn't, you're still wrong even while the AI gravy train improved in the last six months.
