I fear that this is true, but that the complexity will be accidental rather than incidental. Humans are capable of understanding architecture and design patterns - as far as I've seen so far, Copilot and the like do not.
- zamfi 4y agoI think...that's my point? You program at the level of architecture and design patterns, and Copilot and the like fill in the details. Do you need to keep a watchful eye on the details? Of course. The complexity will either be necessary for the great things we build, or unnecessary but time-saving, or just bad all around -- but that's true as software grows independent of LLMs.
