> A customer I am working with can’t even set up CI/CD with GitHub.

Can you please characterize your customer without calling them out by name?

Also, can you clarify what you mean by "can't"? Under what time frame? With what background? With what else on their plate?

In other words, why do you expect your customer to be able to setup CI/CD with GitHub? Maybe this seems reasonable to you, but maybe you are overlooking the hundreds of little things that make it seem easy to you, not least of which is the patience and ability to wade through tasks with many steps.

I'm genuinely curious. Are you suggesting they lack capability (such as intelligence or skills), motivation, and/or something else?

> I have no doubt that AI is not going to kill us because 95% of companies won’t even be able to build it.

I take your joke, but the argument doesn't hold water for many reasons. Here are only two:

1. Even if only 5% of companies can build something dangerous, that's more than enough.

2. The "AI" doesn't have to directly kill us; we're capable of doing that ourselves with only a little bit of informational, societal, and/or economic degradation.

It is because, especially in tech, most people can't even vocalize what they want to the detail that an AI could generate it. Even in my day-job (which is probably similar to yours), most people give me the wrong information when asking for a solution and if I blindly built what they think they needed, they wouldn't get where they wanted.
