What makes you think LLMs will never be able to do that?
Have you tried any of the various DeepResearch products? The workflow is that you make a request for a research project; and then it asks various clarifying questions to narrow down the specific question, acceptable sources, etc.; and only then does it do all the research and collate a report for you.
Sounds like the work of mustering up instructions... like programming...
So how do these LLM's completely remove us from having to do this work of mustering up instructions? Seems to me someone still has to instruct LLMs on what to do, and that the only way this reality will cease to exist entirely, is if humanity stopped desiring computers to do what it is they want. I don't think that's happening anytime soon.
However, maybe fewer programmers will be needed, but then again, the same was said of Fortran and COBOL and look at where we are today, more programmers than ever...

Again, try Deep Research. You make a vague request, and it works with you to make it specific enough that it can deliver a product with some confidence that it will meet your requirements. Like a product manager, business analyst, requirements engineer, or whatever they call it these days.
AI may or may not, this is to be seen, but LLMs of today certainly won't.
