> LLMs fail to generate such code
As another oldster, yes, yes absolutely.
But the deeper question is: can this change? They can't do the job now, will they be able to in the future?
My understanding of what LLM's do/how they work suggests a strong "no". I'm not confident about my confidence, however.
I am sure it can change. Ultimately programming we be completely lost; we are going to hand-wave and command computers inside us or inside the walls of our houses. This absolutely will happen.
But my issue is with people that claim we are either at that point, or very nearly it.
...No, we are not. We are not even 10% there. I am certain LLMs will be a crucial part of such a general AI one day but it's quite funny how people mistake the brain's frontal lobe with the entire brain. :)
