Granted, people would have to be able to accurately describe what they want to the computer
Many people cannot use a calculator to find the area of a triangle because they don't remember the formula for the area of a triangle, or figure out an angle because they don't remember trig
It's entirely possible that using AI to create software will run into the same problem. It won't be a rising tide lifting all boats, but only the top % of boats
That's still a pretty substantial problem if it is the case
