Ok i get the skepticism but what i liked about their description is that it's not the overblown hysterical "AI superhuman programmer" pitch, but a more modest "junior" angle. If they keep looking for something that clicks, there are lots of "junior" niches that could be filled - for example, I can see that thing automatically working to beef up the test coverage. It's kind of difficult to screw up tests, the potential fallout is low and there is a unambiguous number (coverage) as the success criteria. If we look around our daily developer lives, there might be more cases that could be automated with this, even if it doesn't ever become good enough for any general programming.
