Remember the words of Temple OS creator Terry A. Davis about unnecessary complexity being a sign of arrogant idiocy. We already knew this decades ago, and he was just recalling for us what was already obvious to those who are not blinded by greed and pomp. The simpler you can make a thing, the harder the effort, and the greater the skill investment required. This was even part of the old philosopy: the goal is to remove as many lines of code as possible rather than to add more lines of code. AI is so counter and opposite to all of that.
