I think that programming is reinventing the wheel as a profession. If it is not then that wheel has not been invented yet or the programmer is trying to fix the wheel invention his predecessor tried to invent properly. If there is about max 3 proper ways to program one part of any given program then I can see how llms could be the solution to all this energy wasted on fixing bumpy wheel reinventions. Which would mean they could also make it worse. But they lack understanding and therefore ego so they are not at fault. The programmer understands and if not can still rely on ego.
