Code is always the final spec. Maybe the "no engineers/coders/programmers" dream will come true, but in the end, the soft, wish-like, very undetailed business "spec" has to be transformed into hard implementation that covers all (well, most of) corners. Maybe when context size reaches 1G tokens and memory won't be wiped every new session? Maybe after two or three breakthrough papers? For now, the frontier isn't reached.

The thing is, it doesn’t matter how large the context gets, for a spec to cover all implementation details, it has to be at least as complex as the code.

That can’t ever change.

And if the spec is as complex as the code, it’s not meaningfully easier to work with the spec vs the code.
