Based on my experiences with LLMs and the hype around it, we will need more experienced programmers. Because they will have to clean up the huge mess that will come.

In my experience if you look at what effect democratizing code actually has, this is exactly the case. People are generating code, but that’s always been the easy part. The mess this is going to make, gonna need a lot of mops.

		If programmers had any self respect we would refuse to be slop janitors and instead just build competing tools and eat the lunches of AI "coders" But time and time again programmers continue to demonstrate we have no self respect and we're happy to dance to the tune of capital for money. That means we're definitely going to be downgraded to "slop janitors" in the near future
