The Bitter Lesson has held up in a lot of domains where injecting human inductive bias was detrimental. Adding LIDAR for example is not inductive bias - it's a strictly superior form of sensing. You won't call a wolf's sense of smell "hand engineered features" or a cat's reflexes a failure of evolution to extract more signal from an inferior sensory input.
Waymo will win because they want to make a product that works and not be ideological about it - that's ultimately what matters.

This is the actual reality
It's able to query the relevant documentation, put it in its context and then use that to generate code. It's extremely relevant to giving existing models superior functionality.
You don't need an atomistic DFT simulator to get a good enough simulation of fluid dynamics, enough to design jets or rockets that go into space.
