I will simply not hire anybody who is not good at using LLMs, and I don't think I would ever work with anybody who thinks they aren't very useful. It's like working with somebody who things compilers are useless. Obviously wrong, not worth spending time trying to convince.
To anyone who reads this article and disagrees with the central point: You are missing the most important thing that will happen in your career. You should reevaluate because you will be unemployable in a few years.
Back when I was in college in the 00s, if I had developed a preference for not using compilers in my work, I might have been able to build a career that way, but my options would have been significantly limited. And that's not because people were just jerks who were biased against compiler skeptics, or evil executives squeezing the bottom line, or whatever. It's because the kind of software most people were making at that period of time would have been untenable to create without higher level languages.
In my view, we clearly aren't at this point yet with llm-based tooling, and maybe we never will be. But it seems a lot more plausible to me that we will than it did a year or even six months ago.
