Writing is a means of expression and communication. Code can be those things, but that's not its primary purpose. I think "solved coding" is taking it too far, but for many projects, the mechanical aspect of it has been removed or reduced greatly. LLMs will have a much harder time "solving writing", because they cannot develop their own style and so are severely limited, creatively. This is less important for coding. | ||

I agree that writing is much harder, largely because there is no way to get concrete feedback for "does it work" I still think they produce shoddy or sus code too often, an artifact of the current generation's training to try anything and everything until it "completes the task". They have a hard time even with that concept, which is part of "coding" imo | ||
