In my mind, the people most likely to use "AI" for things are the ones who sort of know what they want, but don't know how to get it.
So you ask for code to do something, and the LLM spits out something glommed together from Stack Overflow posts or Reddit. How do you know it does what you wanted? How do you debug it if it doesn't work?
If these actually worked, I'd love to select a hunk of code, and have something spit out basic unit tests, or a reasonable documentation outline. Or even check for logic or security errors. How about figuring out how to upgrade my code to eliminate out-of-date libraries?
My fantasy LLMs that actually do something useful are also not trained on data stolen from the Internet. And they don't use enough electricity to power a country, or evaporate a big city's water supply.
