no. I'm a pretty skilled programmer and I definitely have to intervene and fix an architectural problem here and there, or gently chastise the LLM for doing something dumb. But there are also many cases where the LLM has seen something that i completely missed or just hammered away at a problem enough to get a solution that is correct that I would have just given up on earlier.

The clanker can produce better programs than me because it will just try shit that I would never have tried, and it can fail more times than I can in a given period of time. It has specific advantages over me.
