I think you're shadow-boxing with a point I never made. I never said experienced devs are not or can not be excited about current AI capabilities.

Lots of experienced devs who work in more difficult domains are excited about AI. In fact, I am one of them (see one of my responses in this thread about gpt-oss being able to work on proprietary RF firmware in my company [1]).

But that in no way suggests that there isn't a gap in what impresses or surprises engineers across any set of domains. Antirez is probably one of the better, more reasoned examples of this.
