"AI" researcher here. The only reason there are models that can "write" and "create art" is because that data is available for training. Basically people put massive amounts of digital text and images on the Internet and the companies scraped all of it to train the models. If there were big enough datasets for ship building, that would happen too...

Besides, what the guy is yapping about it is 80% a robotics problem not an AI problem. It's apples and oranges.

He's essentially saying why can Will Smith finally eat pasta normally while we still don't have the robotic workforce from the 2001 Will Smith movie "I, Robot".

He's a programmer, why doesn't he stop working on aligning buttons on web applications and work on shipbuilding robots!?!?

Welding bots would be cool as fuck.

Welding bots already are cool as fuck. They might not be able to cut down an old ship yet but they can pretty much fully assemble a car.

If he's still aligning buttons on web applications he's not a very good developer that's easy now you just use a grid container.
