With how stochastic the process is it makes it basically unusable for any large scale task. What's the plan? To roll the dice until the answer pops up? That would be maybe viable if there was a way to automatically evaluate it 100% but with a human in the loop required it becomes untenable.

Call me old school, but I find the workflow of "divide and conquer" to be as helpful when working with LLMs, as without them. Although what is needed to be considered a "large scale task" varies by LLMs and implementation. Some models/implementations (seemingly Copilot) struggles with even the smallest change, while others breeze through them. Lots of trial and error is needed to find that line for each model/implementation :/

Its hard for me to think of a small, clearly defined coding problem an LLM cant solve.

There are several in the linked post, primarily:

"Your code does not compile" and "Your tests fail"

If you have to tell an intern that more than once on a single task, there's going to be conversations.
