Yeah I also see the potential of LLMs to become the biggest enforcers of general technological and societal stagnation.
But, if mainstream developers have become totally dependent on AI, it is going to be a high bar indeed.
It would be interesting to bake AI into compilers of any new language, so that auto-correction and education of the programmer happens every time they compile.
In general, though, I think people are too quick to surrender to AI.
