Was chatting with a friend about this:

"I used to write java code and the compiler turned it into JVM bytecode.

Now I write in English and the LLMs compile it into whatever language I want."

Although as one HN commenter pointed out: English is a pretty bad programming language as it's way more ambiguous than most programming languages.

The English language has the ability to be ambiguous, but I bet AI use will change the way we use the English language colloquially, to say more specifically what we mean. I worked as a home inspector for a while. Writing for an LLM is very similar to writing a home inspection report or legal brief (or talking to a group of teenagers). Navigate the minefield with very specific intention.
