If we had such advanced AI we wouldn’t ask it to build programs, we would just tell it to do those computations directly. So instead of asking for an invoicing application, we’d just ask to generate an invoice to whatever parameters we need, and to remember the reusable data for next time.
Sure, who knows. Although humans are allegedly bad with 7±2 parameters, hence a nice user interface is still required if humans are to be kept in the loop.
My point was that something like APP-E or GAME-E seems very plausible in the near future and it is more likely to render pixels with the underlying logic encoded in an inscrutable sparse matrix, somewhat the consequence of a beefier DALL-E with regard to the data set, the learning modalities, and the attention span, than to write programs to be compiled/interpreted by any current language stack.
