This is the same conceit for rapid application development and just do the prototype in production.

It just has a lot more legs to it with llms.

I'm glad you're having fun.

But the world doesn't run on prototype code. Maybe llms will help being the quality of code in the last 20 years collectively up a notch.

In other words, it would be great if llms took all that "just good enough code" we wrote in the last 2 to 3 decades and made it actually good code.

I strongly suspect this is not going to be the case. Instead, the world will be absolutely tsunamied by an avalanche of not even quite good enough code
