alt Hacker NewsOr, in the words of Morris Day, "It takes more than a hat to call yourself a chef."
More people have the capability now, but not necessarily the experience or understanding.

Capability? I have to push back on that (AI sounding joke, yes).
Point is, if I give a person a calculator, it doesn't even make them the tiniest bit of a mathematician. Nor if I give them a pencil, either. The tool never, ever makes the tradesperson.
Whatever's happening with LLMs, it's not making people programmers. It's how you use the tool, which validates that.

The hat : chef analogy is even less apposite than the table saw! At least the table saw serves an important function in that trade.
