    That is a very poor equivalence.

    Powertools and machinery still require knowledge on how to do the work properly, account for future maintenance, test for leaks, etc.

    Which is not what everyone is trying to do with “AI”. The “tool” is supposed to replace all necessity of trained and knowleadgeable workers and at some point the workers themselves.

      I think it’s spot on. Even if you use power tools you need to know what kind of screw goes where. But it sure goes a whole lot faster to use power tools.

      Sounds to me from the article that this is a seasoned engineer who just doesn’t want to use the tools she’s being handed.
