First person in my social circles who was a senior engineer got laid off and now they came back begging because the new hires are misusing LLMs and breaking things but he was using them properly and shipping fast.

PROBLEM EXISTS BETWEEN KEYBOARD AND CHAIR

stop blaming the LLMs

@feld from a business standpoint if LLMs don't allow experienced workers to be replaced with disposable serfs than all the money being thrown into the dumpster-fire is a waste.

@gabe I don't know that's exclusively true. I think from the current "AI vendor inflated stock value" perspective that is kind of what they expect, but the tool is still immensely valuable if it requires a skilled engineer to guide it. It can still churn out results faster than a human alone.
