This seems like a really confident prediction. It isn't true right now, why do you think it will be true in the future? Right now having knowledge and experience is a huge benefit to steering the LLM (it makes dumb decisions all the time still).

I totally intended to say "let's not pretend that ... will NOT be able to". Typo and poorly worded, my mistake. I completely agree that the prior experience significantly amplifies what you can do with an LLM over someone without experience.
