Not even mastery. The other day I was trying to figure out how to pass an external label to Prometheus alert rules when unit testing the rules with "promtool test rules". Man, all the models gave all kinds of hallucinated answers, and I had to resort to reading the promtool code. In the end, mastery means we get apply our skills to solve new problems, yet in the current state AI can only interpolate already solved problems.
