But as a web developer I gotta also point out that usually AIs just can't work decently within actual codebases of already existing software, and leaving an AI to do all the job usually means having to deal with shitty code that barely works or situations where things look like they're working but actually isn't properly. Moreover, even desktop software tends to bloat inevitably. The latest example is the Windows Notepad that takes 30mb just to open an empty .txt file. You also can't work with AI proficiently with technologies that aren't widely used
