Would you say a hammer is better than me? It can drive nails faster into a board than my bare hands. Is my phone better than me? I surely cannot do AES as fast as it.
Right. The scope is actually important. My phone isn't better than me at cooking dinner, nor is the hammer, nor is AI (at least not yet.)
So I think it is important to make the distinction: what is AI better at?
Let's take the Claude securitypocalypse.
Is it better at finding software vulns than me? No. Is it better at finding potential software vulns than me? Yes. If I instruct Claude to not only finding the potential vulns, but I also instruct it to validate them using frameworks for validation I've developed over the years, specific to my software, is it even better? Yes.
So I'd like to pose: What is better than both AI and myself? Me using AI.
