Sorry, I have to disagree. People often react to criticisms of AI with “but people also make mistakes,” but that’s a whataboutism fallacy.
The statement was that AI is as good as the “best human programmer” and it’s quite obvious that it’s not. It makes inhuman mistakes on a regular basis because it’s not using human thinking. Blaming those mistakes on poor management is just sweeping the problems under the rug.
I don’t know the best way to work with AI, but I do know that we’ll only discover the best way if we’re honest about its capabilities. That includes not pretending it’s as good as the best human programmers.
