> The coding part of my career is over. LLMs are capable of doing everything I've ever been paid to write. That is certainly not true. LLMs can't write code worth a damn still, and you have to babysit them to make sure they aren't doing stupid stuff. A human is still by far the best choice for doing programming, and when trend-chasing companies realize the damage they've done to their businesses they will stop pushing LLMs so hard. | |||||||||||||||||

"LLMs can't write code worth a damn" I think it depends on the - ahem - context. In my experience they usually can, sometimes they can't. But generally their sense of software architecture remains abysmal, so even if their writing is ok, you need to have architectural authority the very least to guide them. | |||||||||||||||||
