Of course we do. Otherwise we start trying to water crops with Brawndo

But it's very very important that those people deeply understand it. We cannot replace their actual knowledge with LLM approximations of their knowledge

But it got electrolytes !

For now it seems we're veering towards even more specialization in roles.

The concept of "Full Stack" might disappear because, well any LLM can center a div now and create the sql query that fills it with data.

When asking a LLM about "any sre interview question that LLM got wrong ?", it identifies the questions and the corrects answers.

I should take some time to discuss with an LLM to see their answer for one of my last assignment where the underlying issue revealed by bad performance was simply that the client shouldn't have used relational db for almost immutable documents.

And that they should have bought a math library instead of writing their own.
