> Many of those graph nodes are leaf-node tasks, like “write an auth library” or “modernize these unit tests”. They tend to be fairly self-contained. We often give these leaf node tasks to junior developers because the scope is small.
You know, the companies that hand "write an auth library" to their junior developers will, I'm sure, do just fine by having an LLM do it for them. No worse than their normal output, absolutely.
I'm sure a future where this is a good idea is coming, but I've seen nothing to persuade me that this is where we are now. IMO they're glorified intellisense - useful, but if you trust them blindly they'll take you where you deserve to go.
Does anyone have any hard data (not anecdotes/opinions) to suggest I'm wrong on this?
