One part of the system moving fast doesn't change the speed of the system all that much.

The thing to note is, verifying if something got done is harder and takes time in the same ballpark as doing the work.

If people are serious about AI productivity, lets start by addressing how we can verify program correctness quickly. Everything else is just a Ferrari between two traffic red lights.

Really? I disagree that verifying is as hard as doing the work yourself. It’s like P != NP.
