This article from 2019 documents how scaling computation always outperforms building human reasoning into systems.
And some modern commentary:
I don’t believe humans are meant to be bound to screens at a desk writing boilerplate code for half of their waking hours.
I don’t believe humans are meant to sift through reams of legal documents searching for specific information.
I don’t believe humans are meant to painstakingly transcribe hundred year old documents into a digital format.
I do believe we’re meant to create.
I do believe we’re meant to inquire into the nature of truth.
