What it won't be is used for everything.
IMO Joe's right that it's going to be a "sometimes" thing — an example: we don't reach for higher level abstractions like Storyboards or XIBs nearly at all anymore because they were less effective than writing code.
LLM-driven development practices will also ultimately be refined — but also reduced — by continued practical use. There will be things they're amazing for, and things they're not good at at all.
And yes, they'll improve.

@tonyarnold@mastodon.social I don't express what I do with it very often - because I feel like it's a fast way to get "you're using it wrong" or a "not the right model" discussion, which I have no patience for... But at the end of the day I feel like it's kind of a forklift. It can be useful (although sometimes fails) and big operations and moving code around. But you wouldn't do small things with a forklift, and usually when trying to do small or detail oriented things it's much faster to not use an LLM.
