Humans are the CNC machines in your analogy here. Basically we are left to clean up after the sloppy material inputs to get reasonable outputs. It’s just that techbros don’t believe that is (or at least will ultimately be) necessary and that AI can do this step.
The jury is already in on current tech (techbros are wrong), and still out on coming tech in this space, but it seems very unlikely (past experience with tech bros says they are hype machines and full of shit).
So what we land on with AI acting as the CNC is this pseudo facade where the furniture it cranks out looking OK from a distance, up close it’s pretty garbage but while everyone is starting (or forced) to sit on the chairs, it looks like they aren’t really load bearing…
now… apply this to IT, Medical, Financial, Military and any other serious application and you don’t have to wonder why people are concerned anymore.
