this take fails to recognize that coding is arguably the easiest part of building a product

As with everything, there is more to the story.  It's a tool with strengths and weaknesses.  It's just one reference.  What we are witnessing is a cross section of "just build" with "tools that can do that" and not necessarily run by people who "can do that".  

I agree that coding isn't the biggest part of product development, but elegant code can be.  What I find AI doing to try and solve the problem is oversimplify the code or unless explicitly told not to, leave off a bunch of important shit.

Shipping a product is > just building one > idea with no execution, however.  Maybe the masses need some feedback from other smart people, like I keep pleading for.  But another problem with AI, is the assumption that because I can't code at the same level as you, I have no other demonstrable skills or the ability to talk us through the code to hopefully find the issue.
