I mean this is clearly not the case with LLM. They create value today even though they are not AGI yet.

LLMs create value but it's not yet clear how much.

I guess the million dollar question is what are the problems where a 95% solution works.

Making websites for a small business such as restaurants and hairdressers, where neither the owners nor the clients have either heard of nor care about "reactive design", and don't want any database more complex than an excel spreadsheet even if you do try to explain why that's a horrifyingly bad use of the wrong tool.

Probably a lot of them, honestly.

The 95% only problem is an issue for cars cuz that last 5% means you die horribly in a head-on collision, or maybe only get a mild concussion but are stuck in a ditch.

But if I can get 95% of my router configs done, 95% of my documentation written, and 95% of a website whipped up I can hand that off to a Sr Engineer/Admin and have them take care of the last bits. As long as the hours, phone number, and location are good a website just needs to be "directionally accurate" and otherwise fairly basic.

Or people need to learn that different problems have different risk profiles. 95% on if I need more eggs is different than driving a 60 MPH vehicle.
