I figure two things will happen:

a) In a year or two companies will realize that LLMs aren't going to improve enough, and that they need skilled people because AI has turned their software into a shit show, and start hiring desperately.

or

b) In a year or two LLMs will get good enough for code that the software developed is just good enough despite the deskilling effects, and companies can get by with drastically reduced staff.

"But could you not build a thing instead, that does the behaviour directly?"

Back in the day NeXT's Interface Builder let you connect up and configure "live" UI objects, and then freeze-dry them to a file, which would be rehydrated at runtime to recreate those objects (or copies of them if you needed more.)

Apple kept this for a while but doesn't really do it anymore. There were complications with version control, etc.

I assume they're thinking about transcontinental flights most of all. Dubai->LA or whatever.

The concern is that they're not "lost in the wilderness" but rather are going to turn up in the vicinity of some newly dead people.
