it sounds like pseudocode sort of, like analyzing the requirements and needs to a point all that's left is typing it out in whatever programming language you're using. I can see an LLM being pretty good at that but then that's just a higher level version of a compiler going from a programming language to what the machine understands. You start with very well structured human language, the llm turns that into something the compiler understands, and then that is turned into something the machine understands.

It sounds like using an LLM to write code requires careful preparation and wording ahead of time that it's basically like writing in a very high level programming language itself.

Yeah, this is my experience as well. Once I've fully fleshed out the requirements to the point that there is zero ambiguity in what I want, I've basically written a pseudocode implementation already and the AI is just saving me some typing.
