But using AI itself is a job too. It takes effort to correctly prompt, to steer it, to verify it, and to improve the harness.

I doubt this a lot. The average AI user is running claude code as the harness, or Codex etc. prompting has no secret incantations, and steer and verify is just knowing what the answer should roughly look like, which is a domain skill, not an AI skill.

- jenniferhooley 4mo agoI feel like you don't have any friends who make software but don't know how to code. Yes, they do make software now - whereas it was impossible before. You may be absolutely shocked at how bad LLM code can be when prompted from a noncoder. How buggy, and how absolutely rife with security problems it can have. I honestly don't know how they can get LLMs to write such bad software - but somehow they can. This is from people who have been vibe coding for 3 years straight btw (huge amount of time p/day).
