It's demotivating to think that:

- LLMs aren't good at producing original / novel work
- You still need experts to advance that stuff
- It will always be slower to move without using LLMs
- Once an innovation is done though, an innovation can always be scooped up by the LLM users
- "Bro why are you doing all this manually, I just vibe coded that in a weekend"

Will it always be this way? It's depressing in the meanwhile, at least.

@cwebber yeah but programming was always about solving problems anyways. If we take what you say about LLMs here as like the reality of how they are used and worked or whatever. Then the thing to think here is that what is unravelled is that for the most part of the last 20 years these guys were just solving problems other people already solved over and over.
@cwebber and if that is true then that isn't good either.
