Or perhaps the ones complaining aren’t as good as they think they are at coding, prompting, etc.

But if so, then where is the secret prompt sauce for getting those results, please? It's not like we complainers don't read and put in practice all we can about how to refine a spec prompt after prompt, yet our results are still disappointing. To me, that's no wonder at all, as we haven't reached AGI yet; hence, no matter how impressive and productive these tools are, I totally don't expect them to actually know what they are doing.

To be clear: LLMs write about 99% of my code, but with constant steering.
