Hot take: no one should be allowed to opine (in any direction!) on LLM-based AI’s taking engineering jobs until they have:

  1. Read and understood Peter Naur’s paper “Programming as Theory-Building”.
  2. Read enough AI literature to understand that LLMs do not build theories.

Note: this isn’t saying anything in particular about whether LLMs are valuable or not. Your mileage will vary depending on what you do. For most of the kind of work I do, they provide negative value—but I have seen deployments where they are useful, too. It will be pretty clear what I am asserting… if you do the reading assigned by this post. 😉
