If I needed someone to build me a complicated application, I would choose the software developer with 20 years of experience before LLM's were capable of helping software developers that uses LLM's to assist over the software developer with 1 year of experience that never learned to code and just uses LLM's for everything but is clueless as to how any of it works.

Same thing with doctors.

But you’ve arrived at the ER and the attending staff are oversubscribed, so you have interns and residents primarily trying to keep you alive. Sure, if you are a VIP you’ll get extra special care, but most of us aren’t.
