Aren't we just reinventing programming languages from the ground up?

This is the loop (and honestly, I predicted it way before it started):

1) LLMs can generate code from "natural language" prompts!

2) Oh wait, I actually need to improve my prompt to get LLMs to follow my instructions...

3) Oh wait, no matter how good my prompt is, I need an agent (aka a for loop) that goes through a list of deterministic steps so that it actually follows my instructions...

4) Oh wait, now I need to add deterministic checks (aka, the code that I was actually trying to avoid writing in step 1) so that the LLM follows my instructions...

5) <some time in the future>: I came up with this precise set of keywords that I can feed to the LLM so that it produces the code that I need. Wait a second... I just turned the LLM into a compiler.

The error is believing that "coding" is just accidental complexity. "You don't need a precise specification of the behavior of the computer", this is the assumption that would make LLM agents actually viable. And I cannot believe that there are software engineers that think that coding is accidental complexity. I understand why PMs, CEOs, and other fun people believe this.

Side note: I am not arguing that LLMs/coding agents are nice. T9 was nice, autocomplete is nice. LLMs are very nice! But I am starting to be a bit too fed up to see everyone believing that you can get rid of coding.
