Scenario: an AI lab develops ASI for software development internally. The ASI produces bug-free software and human-readable specs. It's so reliable the company can guarantee the code matches the spec.

Rather than provide tokens to developers, they instead sell finished software to the companies: specs in, software out.

Companies no longer need to employ software developers. Instead, they buy bespoke, bug free, guaranteed quality software from the AI lab.

Seems plausible to me.

As plausible as any cyberpunk Utopia model you read up on, sure. Nevermind that AGI/ASI is still pie in the sky thinking as of now.
