To me it’s a purpose fit solution that does actually show what LLMs are capable of. Just in the best case, with the most well defined constraints one will be able to work with.

It proves that with a sufficient spec, it can do a lot of work. The spec is always the problem though - to make the spec correct enough, one has to go thru the same process as coding it. Will LLMs surface the right tradeoffs, let alone make them? Working w frontier models all day, I can say resoundingly no, and not for a long while I think. Always looking for examples of things going well though if folks have some to share.
