Much as you don't generally go auditing the bytecode or intermediate representation generated by your compiler, I think the idea of manually reviewing LLM-written code will fall by the wayside too. Like it or not, these agents are the new compilers, and prompting them is the new programming. Regardless of what happens with any AI bubble, this is just how things will be from now on; we've experienced a permanent, irreversible increase to the level of abstraction. We are all assembly programmers
@stroughtonsmithSteve Troughton-Smith I'm at a point where if I'm getting this shoved down my throat and be forced to use LLMs for everything, I'll just quit and do something else. I'm here for the art, the thinking, the human factor. If I'm forced to be replaced by AI then so be it and I'll just go garden or something else AI can't ruin.
