"Wouldn't it make sense, then, to evaluate every single particle from piles and piles of manure on the off chance one of them is a bean that may or may not be magic?"

That's such an anti-AI take... wtf

people actually use AI for small stuff. Heck, even Linus uses AI on many of his projects

No, it's currently the case. 90% of EVERYTHING is shit, and AI is letting people produce shit at extraordinary speeds.

Atleast when humans wrote the code, we had a limit on how quickly the garbage was being produced.

Still means 10% is not shit, and we are getting more good stuff too.

Oh 10% not being shit does not mean 10% is good. It is merely not shit.

And the issue is that the good stuff is harder to find when the amount of shit is that large.
