What is coding? Pushing keys or knowing the right keys to push?

Ai can push a lot of keys very fast, but not always the right ones

if they need to be reminded to follow the coding standards, visible in the very code they are working on, what has been solved?

> What is coding?

Opening the IDE and typing program code. With LLMs you don't have to use an IDE, you don't have look at program code, you don't have to care about coding standards. You ask the chatbot to write you a program/feature/fix and chatbot does it.

Is chatting with a chatbot still "coding"?

The part that isn't fully solved is just the software architecture side of things, do you want library A or library B, or write it all from scratch? LLM can do all three, but if you aren't careful it might go down a route that you don't like. But that again can be fixed with chat, "replace A with B", not coding.

		So lets say you plan the software architecture and take a person off the street, give them a frontier model and tell them to clone Figma given your architecture How far would they get?
