I find making the LLMs think and plan the project a bit worrying, I understand this helps with procrastination but when these systems eventually get better and more integrated, the most likely thing to happen to software devs is them moving away from purely coding to more of a solution architect role (aka Planning stuff), not taking into account the negative impact of giving up critical thinking to LLMs.

Other than that a great article! Very insightful.



I actually think it is going to be way worse than you are suggesting. I think that the LLM codegen is going to replace most if not all of software eng workflow and teams that we see today.

Software is going to be prompt wrangling with some acceptance testing. Then just prompt wrangling.

I don't have a lot of hope for the software profession to survive.
