This is a good read and makes a lot of great points. I think everyone in tech needs to understand the arguments here. The biggest thing for me is that LLMs are incredibly useful tools, but not in the way they are advertised. They are great for learning how existing code works, but shit at writing anything novel or innovative. From the article:
The past is a prison when you’re inventing the future.
In my opinion, if you're using LLMs to do anything but help you learn from the past, you're doing it wrong. LLMs cannot move you forward, and I think that may be the point.
