> But the moment that the AI can exceed a human programmer, at something as narrow as coding, then the company that has that AI shouldn't sell it to replace humans at other companies - it should instead use it to write programs to replace the other companies. I'm not sure this is a good take. There's a reason why Microsoft employs 200,000+ people, and you can be sure most of them they're not cranking out code 9-to-5. Companies are living organisms more than they are pieces of software. In fact, the source code for Windows has been leaked a number of times over the years, and it resulted in approximately $0 revenue lost.
