My company is moving to a workflow where we only write Jira tickets, the LLM writes all the code and submits a PR. Then we are supposed to review the code the LLM wrote.
that doesnt seem particularly horrible, as long as you as the engineer can still go change things in the code package and surrounding infrastructure to improve the output, and make sure that the agent is actually making the right stuff the first time you see the outputs
eg. setting up better feedback loops, improving CI/CD, breaking changes up at the right scale, etc.
you i assume also can then put in more work up front, doing simulations of solutions, lean proofs, and so on?

more engineering, less plumbing
