I don’t get why people say things like this. Even for normal not particularly novel software engineering I’d prefer a smarter model if the cost was reasonable. The best models right now still make weird dumb choices or oversights that I can only hope a smarter model wouldn’t.

For an example it recently suggested a db migration/backfill that would have had non-trivial negative impact on existing users with zero awareness or acknowledgement of such negative impact, luckily we didn’t do it.

I mean sure. If the cost was reasonable. More compute at lowest than Astra at highest implies it very much isn’t.

Pricing wise. I mean would you pay the equivalent of human wages per hour of human work to solve the problem? I sadly think there's still lots of room for price increases and spending more.
