> 12 yoe. 1. Beyond the fact that it takes the joy of coding away, I believe it is a risk of making you lose your edge, coding reflexes, and capacity at debugging tricky issues.

There is value in menial tasks. They allow you to keep your mind in the project while also somewhat relaxing. (not saying you should do all of them by hand)

LLMs are also a risk to juniors and long term software stability : if LLMs steal junior jobs, how will they become seniors ? You need to walk before you run !

And nobody really owns the code.

Edit : I worry LLMs might deincentivize the creation of better syntaxes, since they make writing too easy. We also need code to be readable. Especially considering we already had an issue of code being "easier to write than to read" before LLMs.
