Pretty much all code they write needs small edits.
Yeah.
But they basically give you a scaffolding, right?
They they push you through the writer's block, they give you, you know, an initial idea of of how this will look like.
Often they know how to use frameworks or libraries that are
don't know how to use, right?
And then I can edit the uh the small things to make it actually work at the end of the day.
So I think
We'll still need software developers.
Uh-huh.
They'll do less grunt work.
They can probably, as a result, focus a little bit more on the higher level architecture functions, which is great.
So for the the career advice to your children, I think would be to say, no, still study computer science is probably going to be a very good discipline, but focus more on the architectural higher level parts, you know, rather than the the brunt coding.
Now, there's a really interesting question of how will this look like long term?
Because while today we're using this in a way that's sort of interactive where it's suggests something I edit it, at the end of the day, the only thing that remains is the source code.
You could see a world where actually I have a high level description of the the program and then LLM breaks it down into smaller subcomponents.
Right.
I think it's very unlikely this will work to a degree where all this code will just run and that's of the error exponentially accrues the deeper you go down, right?
But you might be at a point where you basically, you know, break it down, you look at the next layer of steps and you say, like, well, this step needs to be added a little bit, and this steps need to be a little added a little bit.
And then you sort of put on quote recompile, so you have to re-expand it with these, you know, slightly changed prompts, right?
