I think it’s going to require a change in how models are built and optimized. Software engineering requires models that can do more than just generate code.

You mean to tell me that language models aren’t intelligent? But that would mean all these people cramming LLMs in places where intelligence is needed are wasting their time?? Who knew?

Me.

The LLM worship has to stop.

It’s like saying a hammer can build a house. No, it can’t.

It’s useful to pound in nails and automate a lot of repetitive and boring tasks but it’s not going to build the house for you - architect it, plan it, validate it.

It’s similar to the whole 3D printing hype. You can 3D print a house! No you can’t.

You can 3D print a wall, maybe a window.

Then have a skilled Craftsman put it all together for you, ensure fit and finish and essentially build the final product.
