Unless the AI is allowed to ask questions, like a regular programmer would? I think we're getting close to strong AI there though, so I don't see it happening

I think we're getting close to strong AI there though, so I don't see it happening any time soon.

- flir 4y agoSorry. To be clear: I think strong AI is "fifty years away" and has been for seventy five years. So yeah, an expert system that can read a natural language description of a feature and ask questions until it has enough detail to generate the code is science fiction in my opinion. Having said that, maybe it could be achieved in a limited domain, SHRDLU-style. But that's just a way to deal with the ambiguity by excising it.
