For most people, fascination with LLMs is inversely proportional with intelligence.
There is a small subset of the population that was already highly skilled and intelligent to begin with. They can make use of LLMs to enhance their abilities even further.
But, for the vast majority, LLMs are a net-negative. Instead of working on their shortcomings, they crutch on LLMs to produce slop. They don't know what they don't know, and cannot produce software where quality and correctness matter, no matter how much "smarter" the models get.
the small subset that was already good will still be good. everyone else was already producing human slop. the models just made the slop faster and shinier. soon there will be no human written code at all. better get used to it.
Yes.
