Long ago we abstracted programming into a logical language which allow us to think at a higher level. IMO LLMs are another abstraction but a bad one as it is stochastic and we can't guarantee output quality (e.g. security, performance, etc). The dream has always been to tell the computer what to do in a simple language, and the challenge has always been finding out that we didn't even know what we wanted the computer to do. LLMs might help in the first one but not in the latter. At the end, human intelligence cannot be outsourced.
