I was reflecting on this yesterday, as I have often hated AI for generating emails and other written text, but kinda am loving it for writing code. One realization was what you said about me just wanting the code done so I can use the app. The second was that, for me, I care about the output of the code, not the code itself. Whereas with the written word, I care about the word. Perhaps if I used AI to summarize what someone wanted in the email then I would care less about the written word coming from a human, but right now I still want to read what they've written. You can say that there are programmers who want to read the code from someone else, but I don't think there's the equivalent of code abstracted away into a UI that exists for the written word (open to that being challenged). The last and maybe biggest realization is that computer language exists as multiple levels of abstraction. Machine language, assembly language, high-level language, etc. I'm not sure human languages have as many layers of abstraction, or if they do, they exist within the same language. I'll keep reflecting, just my short two cents for now.
