AI、工具与转型 — Benedict Evans
但借助人工智能，你现在只需五分钟即可构建出该工具，且无需工程师身份，也无需编写代码。你只需向模型提出请求，让它为你生成该工具；更根本地说，甚至可直接让模型代你完成该项任务本身。软件由此可能摆脱逐个构建的模式，转而具备动态性、生成性、自由形态与即时自发性。海量任务得以实现自动化，而所需编写的软件量却大幅减少。
原始摘录
But with AI, now you can make that tool in five minutes, and you don't need to be an engineer, and you don’t need to write code. You can just ask the model to make the tool for you, or, more fundamentally, just do the task for you itself . Instead of having to create those tools one at a time, software might be dynamic, generative, free-form, and spontaneous. Massively more tasks can be automated, with massively less software.

人们很容易产生一种想法：人工智能将彻底扫除上述所有问题。这里有个老笑话：工程师就是那种宁愿花一小时开发工具来自动化一项耗时仅十分钟的任务的人。
原始上下文
It can be very tempting to think that AI will sweep most of this away. There’s an old joke that an engineer is someone who’ll spend an hour building a tool to automate a task that would take 10 minutes.
