Well written. My whole life I've always insisted that everything I make, everything with my name on it have my marks on it. My decisions, my idiosyncrasies, my preferences. Whatever it was, essays, presentations, code, drawings. LLMs break that, I can't enforce those marks without breaking their core value proposition.Those marks do essentially what they claimed to. They prove I did the work. When I use LLM I didn't.
I also don't know how to tread the line between letting an llm do most of the work and still understanding the code base. And it's still an open question whether I will even need to understand it in the future. But if I don't then what is the point of my existence?
