The reality is new technology that works, will get used for what it best works for.

There are things that LLMs remain uniquely suited for, while the echo chambers go for everything.

There's no requirement to use new technology. Maybe what you do, or how you do it is just fine, and that's OK.

Skepticism today can remind me of someone who went into a cave for 3-4 years with a dated take of LLMs on day 1 and not remember software improves, and LLMs are software.

There are no shortage of uniquely working solutions with LLMs if sone seeks to find them, and also the self-validating echo chamber that says that it doesn't if that's desired. Which parts of software development, or how software development may better happen differently with the involvement of AI remains to be seen.
