If it's a one off and needs no or minimal maintenance work afterwords, sure.
If it's intended to be actively maintained, then you probably should understand how things work, unless you want to wipe everything and start from scratch when the LLM creates such a mess that it can't be sorted out.
If you look into large fully-vibecoded projects getting styling changes to work is a nightmare. The problem with agents is using them on large projects without manual review for consistency, guidelines and taste. Doesn't really matter the type of project.
Agents can't look at a large system holistically, guidelines on .md files only go so far.
This line of thinking is like suggesting people who would like to become structural engineers should learn to Google plans and copy them since in the future, all plans will be out there more or less, or something that insane.
I suggest people who need some structural engineering done may use an AI tool to do it, in the hypothetical scenario that it was within the AI's capabilities.
That's hardly insane. Not everyone is interested in learning something they want done.
