alt Hacker NewsThe question is whether it’s more important to be able to do things, or more important to have a good sense and a keen eye for what to do at any given moment. I personally think both are really important, and I also think AI won’t be able to do both better than any human could for another while, and moreso when it comes to doing both at the same time (though I’m not going to claim it’s never going to).
My point is that both Alice and Bob have a place in this world. In fact, Bob isn’t really doing much different from what a Pricipal Investigator is already doing today in a research context.

Those aren't mutually exclusive.
"People who do things" can do both, and doing the latter is a function of doing the former, so they tend to do the latter sufficiently well.
"People who prompt things" can only do the latter, and they routinely do it poorly.
