If you are complete novice then obviously not but I think anyone reasonably proficient in a language would be able to identify optimisations that an AI just doesn't seem to perceive largely because humans are better at context.

It's like that question about whether it's worth driving your car to the car wash if the car wash is only 10 metres away. AIs have no experience of the real world so they don't inherently understand that you can't wash a car if it's not at the car wash. A human would instantly know that that's a stupid statement without even thinking about it, and unless you instruct an AI to actually deeply think about something they just give you the first answer they come up with.

I agree with you. But the tool will output a basic code that mostly do what asked in seconds instead of tens of minutes if not hours. So now we could argue if the optimization you make are worth the added cost I'd writing the code yourself or if it's better to have the tool to generate the code and then optimizing it.

What's why they're pushing for the datacenters, they want to turn make every query that deep. The tech is here, but the ability to sustain it isn't. They build the data centers, kick the developers out, depress the education market for it, and then raise the prices.

Companies will be paying the AI companies 60k per year per seat in a decade.

At that price it would be cheeper to use humans

That's the brilliance. There won't be a pool of trained young developers by then.
