People always say stuff like this, but it is misleading. The reason it's misleading is because that remaining 5% makes a huge difference, and is where most of the value of using AI agents lies.
I'm not interested in using AI to write code that would have taken me 5-10 minutes to write myself. I use AI to debug complex bugs and develop large features that span multiple domains - stuff that normally takes hours, if not days/weeks. A model that is "enough for 95%" does not cut it for that, because the failures compound during long-horizon tasks and the thing becomes a mess.
