What would be an immense multiplier of software eng productivity is an intelligent auto-fixer tool: a compiler gives you an error, you know how to fix it, but it's a tedious work that wastes most of your time. Think of fixing build deps, rewriting method signatures to match the parent class, properly adding a library to your project. You'd write "include ssl.h; encrypt(message)" and the tool would add all the plumbing around it, in line with project guidelines.
