I could see a world where people turn to an LLM for a task where the hand-rolled solution could be a simple state machine or some nested switch statements.
The irony would be that the LLM could write you that code, but if you don’t know to ask…
The real irony would be if the AI uses an LLM to write the code the second time it sees the same request repeated, deploys it to effortlessly deal with all future requests, and goes back to playing Quake while collecting the full paycheck.
