> but if you do specs and tests it's actually the opposite, you can go beyond technical debt and regenerate your code as you like.

Having to write all the specs and tests just right so you can regenerate the code until you get the desired output just sounds like an expensive version of the infinite monkey theorem, but with LLMs instead of monkeys.

You can have it write the specs and tests, too, and review and refine them much faster than you could write them.
