This is a kind of bad take really. Just because AI can make art does not mean that's the only thing that it will be used for.

Realistically though it's blindingly obvious why AI isn't being used for ship breaking, and that's because it's not a purely software problem, it requires interfacing with robots and humanoid robots at that because a standard mechanical arm attached to an assembly line won't cut it in this scenario. So it's an incredibly difficult problem to solve and being angry that someone hasn't solved it yet is stupid.

If this guy is really a programmer he should know that.
