How's the non-programmer going to tell the LLM to use Docker? They don't know what Docker is.

How do you guarantee that the prompt "make me a burger website" results in a Docker container?

At this point, I think you are intentionally missing the point.

The non-programmer doesn't need to know about Docker, or race conditions, or memory leaks, or virtual functions. The programmer says "make me a web site" and the LLM figures it out. It will use an appropriate language and appropriate libraries. If appropriate, it will use Docker, and if not, it won't. If the non-programmer wants to change hosting, he can say so, and the LLM will change the hosting.

The level of abstraction goes up. The details that we've spent our lives thinking about are no longer relevant.

It's really not that complicated.
