I'm doing all that, but it's not the same. I'm no longer writing code and it was my favorite part of the job. I guess I was lucky to have a job I enjoyed, now I join the 87% of people who hate their job.
That's your managers fault then not ai itself if you can't use it how you want to
What happens if you write the code and your LLM agents write the unit tests, maintain the CI scripts, keep the requirements and specifications and comments in sync with what the code actually does, reviews your code and points out potential problems?
LLMs are actually the best "employees" I've ever had, they don't get their feelings hurt, they usually do what they're told after a few reinforcement instructions. They're forgetful, but willingly write and refer to comprehensive notes.
