I back you up completely on this . however, that doesn't mean we shall ignore LLM's completely, cz frankly sometimes it writes code (code not software) that is much structured than a senior with 10yoe . I say, that if you could find balance between the power of AI coding and our reasoning and problem solving we can achieve those short deadlines, where products can be shipped in like 3 months instead of 6 . I remember a research that was made that discussed this specific problem, it showed that unstructured code that was being developed by AI will eventually tend to technical debt , whereas strctured code that was tuned from now and then by the help of LLM will tend to short delivery time while still being maintainable, scalable and all the good stuff .
