Boilerplate details mean we've failed as an industry. Why haven't we already got the computer to automate all the boring bits without AI?
A lot of innovation that finally lands in programming languages has been done decades earlier, but now it's mostly awkwardly bolted on existing languages and frameworks.
That's not what's really being discussed here though. Since it's already automated, you don't need to automate it with AI.
Efficiency and finding the right abstractions and tradeoffs is literally identical with making new capacities and capabilities. If all of your systems were truly "run by AI", we wouldn't have systems. Systems are systems because the AI uses well developed tools and protocols that humans have put together. It's a stable capacity.
