> IMHO it's similar to what happened to DevOps in the 2000s, you just don't need a big special team to help you deploy anymore, you hire a few specialists and mostly buy off the shelf solutions.

I advocate for these metaphors to help people better understand a reasonable expectation for LLMs in modern development workflows. Mostly because they show it as a trade-off versus a silver bullet. There were trade-offs to the evolution of devops, consider for example the loss of key skillsets like database administration as a direct result of "just use AWS RDS" and the explosion in cloud billing costs (especially the OpEx of startups who weren't even dealing with that much data or regional complexity!) - and how it indirectly led to Gitlabs big outage and many like it.
