> Many are not doing any of that

I do.

Most people sucked at programming before AI and they still suck after it. Who cares what "many" do. We as individuals can demand higher bars from ourselves and our teams. AI can increase that bar or lower it depending on how it is used.

And yet, you're in a thread discussing the people who don't look at llm output. And where you tried to claim that assembly -> compiled language, is the same abstraction as coding -> not even looking at LLM output.

And then after I replied, edited your comment to change that context a bit.

So as for ypur original assertion, in this subthread, no... not even remotely the same.
