Hell, even project managers who used to be engineers have trouble figuring out what they need. The reason engineers/general technical folk are valuable is because their job is to pick through the guesswork laid by management and formulate an actual working thing, regardless of whether it's a physical object or a button on a website.

Current language learning model AI has no chance if you can't actually formulate what you really need.

I can make AI write code for me, but actually knowing what I need it to write is more than half the battle
