I dunno, man. I think you could have spent that time, you know, learning to code instead.

Sure. But it happens that I have 20 years of experience, and I know quite well how to code. Everything the LLM does for me I can do myself. But the LLM does that 100 times faster than me. Most of the days nowadays I push thousands of lines of code. And it's not garbage code, the LLMs write quite high quality code. Of course, I still have to go through the code and make sure it all makes sense. So I am still the bottleneck. At some point I will probably grown to trust the LLM, but I'm not quite there yet.
