This is really insightful, but I think it also extends to making the project either low stakes or low complexity. I have this lurking feeling that the preferable architecture for software will change as a result of LLMs because they're good at working on low complexity modular components more than they are on high complexity million-line code bases.

You'll just shift complexity to the orchestration of the modular components.

Monoliths vs micro-services.

		There's some truth here. But in carefully orchestrated scenarios (the minority, to be sure), it can work surprisingly well, I think.

They aren't necessarily as great at building low-complexity high-modularity components, though. ;)

Unless you know enough to tell them to! And keep them honest about it...
