LLMs can pretty easily read source code and tell you what it does. It's completely actionable for any motivated person.

Still sidestepping around the inherent need for some level of technical capability and motivation. The average person has no idea what "source code" is, and an LLM is not going to make them meaningfully understand in one conversation. If the LLM just says, "trust me bro you're good", now we have just moved the problem of trust to something even more inscrutable.
