Yep, it's pure hyperbole. Maybe for generating starter templates I can 70% out of AI, but once I'm building on an established project, it's much more limited to 30%. This is due to large projects taking too much context for an LLM to clearly understand feature development.

Yep exactly. If what this person is claiming is true we would've seen major acceleration in number of long standing bugs/issues in an open source project like pytorch. I don't see any such thing.

Is this Addy Osmani person some sort of AI scamster to make these absurd claims. I cannot think of any other reason thats motivating him to write this.
