A compiler does it "good enough", but AI = god in a bottle, thus it'll do it "perfectly". And for perfection you need to edit the raw metal using butterflies and cosmic rays, it'll be the only real programmer to ever appear. Pressures like time and focus will stop existing. Why? Because AI = god, QED.

...or at least that's the sort of crap that those Silicon Valley muppets believe in. The content itself doesn't make sense, but why that pile of nonsense is uttered does - a fringe religious-like belief increasingly common among them.
