This premise seems incorrect. SWEs may aspire to produce perfect steaks as a matter of pride, but demand asks for mass produced steaks that trade off against other factor like time and cost.
There is a reason github isn't full of nasa lunar lander quality this can't crash code...
Indeed. The global chain is McDonalds, which is of extremely average beef sold as hamburger rather than steak, but at vast quantities and predictable quality and low price. LLMs are going to be the McDonalds of code: "everyone knows" it's bad for you and the environment, they have a huge number of customers anyway.
(Meanwhile my main takeaway from this is that, like AI, people really like talking about making steak and make it their whole personality)
Since the invention of the optigrill you can get great steaks in your home. Automatically.
Those existing make the comparison a bit silly. Though, given how those seem to be somewhat of a niche that few people know or care about maybe automated perfection isn't what all people have an interest in. Process vs. result and all that. Or maybe it's just that few people realize that optigrills are a thing that exist and how good they are.
I don't know about George Foreman-style. So far I only have experience with the GC750D16. And yes, it makes a great steak. Takes about five minutes, give or take.
