> LLMs just make this problem more visible.

This theme keeps popping up everywhere. Lots of things were "the way we did things" because a lot of reasons. LLMs just amplify some things and they get enhanced visibility. It can be a good thing, if you're able to understand what/why/how changed, or it can be a bad thing if you insist that "this is how we do things, because this is how we've always done things".

Or... maybe... just maybe... it can be a bad thing, because it's a bad thing.

Many things can be wrong, for many reasons. The problem is when people think LLMs make it wrong, instead of understanding that LLMs just expose the thing for what it was. It's like shooting the messenger just because the messenger is an LLM. That was my point, in case I worded it badly.

or maybe it is a bad thing, because right now the model is "throw it against the wall and see what sticks or how many billions we need to make it stick"?

When was it not? We've been doing this for decades. Something usually sticks.
