tl;dr: "Slow down and think about what you're doing when using an LLM." Saved you five minutes. I was expecting a lot more, or a worked example, or _something_ to that effect. 90% of the text is the author complaining and defining the problem, then a hand-wavy vague solution is presented in the penultimate paragraph. Barely relevant or useful, really. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Almost all opinion pieces are like that. They lack information density, but some readers (like me) like them that way. Otherwise, I'd only read one-line summaries. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I mean, go look at the author's linkedin and github. They're a "dev" with 20 years of 1 year of experience. Not a software "engineer" There's a big difference between the two and LLMs are increasing the chasm. The Software devs are crying out because the LLMs can already do their full job. Software engineers are happy because the LLMs are removing a large chunk of the job that's low value. Software dev using an LLM is gonna produce "slop" Software engineer using an LLM is going to have an increase in productivity depending on how they're using the LLM tools. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
