LLMs are not deterministic. They do typically behave within pretty reasonable boundaries. Humans are not deterministic. They also typically behave within pretty reasonable boundaries. Engineering with LLMs and humans means understanding those boundaries and designing for them. This is a legitimate engineering problem like any other. I think the main misalignment I see is the expected productivity gain. When you are using real engineering discipline it is still very productive to use AI for coding, but not nearly so productive as many people claim when you factor the fragility of their system. There is no correct use. There is no “correct” way to build systems. There is principled and disciplined use. |

There is a pretty big difference. If you ask a human "Is X true", and they says "yes", you can be 100% sure that they will always behave in a way that is logically consistent with X being true (talking about a competent and honest human being here, and when the implication is obvious). But by their very nature, there is no reason to assume the same with the LLMs.
