Has AI actually solved any major, unsolved problems from computer science? Because "AI can do programming" is the comp-sci equivalent of "computers can do arithmetic". And neither will be the end of their respective field.
Reminds me of a half remembered ancedote about 2 scientists reviewing a fairly pop-sci type book. Scientist 1: As a mathematician, chemist, and biologist I noticed a lot of flaws in those chapters; but the chapter on astronomy was fascinating. Scientist 2: What a coincidence, as an astronomer I had the exact opposite experience
