Whenever actual studies are made about LLM coding they always show that LLM coding is a net loss in quality and delivery speed.

(They are good as coder psychotherapy tho.)

Well, things are changing so fast those studies are going to be out of date. And I have no doubt some people are experiencing a net loss while others are not. We need to pry apart why some people are having success with it and others aren't, and build on top of what's working.
Sounds a lot like "software engineering".

Wasn't AI supposed to free us from all that and let us fire all those useless coders?
