Writing pieces of code that beat average human level is solved. Organizing that code is on its way to being solved (posts like this hint at it). Finding problems that people will pay money to have solved by software is a different entirely more complicated matter (tbh I doubt anyone could prove right now that this absolutely is or isn’t solvable - but given the change we’ve seen already I place no bets against AI).

Also even if agents could do everything the societal obstacles to change are extensive (sometimes for very good, sometimes for bad reasons) so I’m expecting it to take another year or two serious change to occur.

Come on you’re taking the piss, surely.
