But coding is solved? Why do you need those guys if all they do is use claude code? Just have it solve it overnight. You forgot to prompt "make it secure pls"?

Coding is solved, but problems with code is not yet solved.

I think I'm pretty good at cooking, but still working on the part where it tastes like food and doesn't make you violently ill.

They didn't say the "folks" from those companies were engineers! Maybe it's a group of PMs from Nvidia, ByteDance, Tencent and OpenAI that are working to harden the codebase.

My belief, is the people who post this quote thinking it's some big win are the same people who are upset they can't post "stochastic parrot" anymore.

And we all saw how that went.
