Is Uncle Bob serious?

This is what I don't understand about AI proponents and/or fear mongers. Human level AI writing code? Wouldn't that just be a lot of the same human level bugs? Then people say Super AI will evolve more in a day than we have in a million years. Sure, maybe, it's not known if that's even possible, at this point.

I only mentioned AI to highlight (exaggerate even) the level new tools need to be at in order to solve this problem. I meant it in the self-aware/skynet/HAL sort of way, not tensorflow.

Well, when someone makes an AI that would really be able to understand customer requirements and then implement them, that would put us out of our jobs! :-D
