This is a very astute point by @baldur@toot.cafe about the LLM debate is software development:

It’s a question of differing worldviews about what the state of software development was before the “AI” bubble.

Before LLMs arrived, the critics believed that existing software dev was flawed, largely inadequate, and a recipe for future crises, whereas the fans thought things were great but needed to be faster.

The LLM tools are all geared towards making existing – highly flawed – approaches to software development go faster, without addressing any of the fundamental issues that have caused recurring software crises over the years.
