Wake me up when LLMs help me write better code and let me understand the codebase, and not before. Not faster, not more productive, but a more comprehensible codebase that I can reason in my own head.

Otherwise, if they write so much better code, than it's pointless to have a human in the loop.

You will develop quite a lot of illnesses sleeping for this long, but your choice I suppose. Who knows, maybe it happens as soon as next year. I would strongly suggest living a life, any life really, instead of waiting like that.
I use LLM, extensively in fact. I just don't see the value in using the LLMs the way people are using it right now.
