I'm well familiar with this too. It's essentially a variant of Graeber's "Bullshit Jobs." Given how many BS jobs exist - and I've witnessed them personally - it's a bit early to declare LLMs the death of the programmer. It seems to me that the more likely outcome is that, rather than being put out of work, we programmers will become somewhat more efficient. Somebody has to babysit and evaluate the output of the robots, after all. Does that translate to more actual productivity? Maybe in some cases, but given low expectations it might also just mean that we slack off even more. Perhaps ultimately, many more programming jobs will devolve into BS jobs.
