BIGGEST MISCONCEPTION IN AI:

using AI doesn't mean you're barely doing anything (seems obvious, but it's not)
the people saying this have never actually tried to get a good, let alone great, output from any LLM or agent
getting a good output from AI requires CONSTANT iterations, ESPECIALLY when using it for anything creative
AI on autopilot produces AI slop. every. single. time.
anyone who's built anything meaningful with AI knows that the idea of one-shotting is just a marketing term
nobody serious ships one-shots in production. nobody
funnily enough the one-shotting narrative is exactly what exacerbates this false notion
at the end of the day, the people holding this belief don't understand that AI is JUST a TOOL and nothing more
and after all, the tool is only as good as the human running it
