It takes an engineer who knows the material well enough to see that LLM accuracy is incredibly low, even when it seems to be making sense.
This was my take until even this year, but honestly it has improved since a year or even six months ago.
It still lies to you and needs to be given pointers constantly, and many other caveats, but the reality is that all of the investment and coming up with the failure loop perfected by Claude Code changed things IMO.
It’s really depressing to think about how all of these rich fucks set a trillion dollars on fire to eliminate one of the only good paying careers available. It’s almost like it’s time to riot or something. 🤷
I still don’t think that means the c suite will be able to fire all of the programmers. It’ll still be the nerds’ job to get the robot to produce the software. It’s likely just going to make life more miserable for the remaining programmers because more and more will be expected of less of them.
