The results being a lot better crafted by hand I would agree with, if one removes any notion of a time constraint. Sometimes the comparison point is between the LLM authored software or nothing at all.

But business people always cared only about thr result. My PM (who speaks like a salesman) only cares about the results. My “head of” same. My ceo same. The only ones who ever cared about the process and quality were us the engineers… if we don’t have that care, well, to hell with everything

> enjoy the process

This means different things to different people, lot of people enjoy the process of engineering solutions with LLM agents, build out tailored skilled, custom approaches that make up their own flavour "agentic" workflow. There are also people who find joy in Javascript that other people cannot understand why. And other people again love system languages or even tinkering with assembly etc.

What I wanted to say is that LLM use does not automatically mean people just want to get results faster, there are still nerds enjoying the process of working with these new tools.

I am not really sure. I wrote some scripts that aggregated data from several APIs with an LLM and the LLM had the foresight to create a caching layer for the API responses as it properly inferred that I would need the results over and over again as well as using asyncio to accelerate fetch speed. This would have been a v2 or v3 and it one-shotted it perfectly.
