It's interesting to see how reinforcement learning is used to assist humans. This is a great combination of HCI and AI. Emma Brunskill at Stanford - https://cs.stanford.edu/people/ebrun - has a series of work using an RL framework to teach humans faster. For example, in this work they developed a POMDP to choose pedagogical activities that will maximize student learning, based on the student's current knowledge.

Andrej Karpathy has a nice blog post on this: https://medium.com/@karpathy/software-2-0-a64152b37c35

The idea is that more and more software development will be "deleting" code, and re-writing that with neural networks.
