LLMs Aren't Just for Sissies

Meh.

Why is the title using a dated slur against homosexuals? And the contents of the post (apart from the ads at the end) sound repetitive and uninformative to me.

The point seems to be a "vibe argument" based on "vibe" clichees (e.g. "sissies use LLMs" or "serious programmers don't use them").

I would be fine with clichees if the article would contain any thought or information that seems new or relevant to me.

But this very clearly is not the case here.

What's the point? Seems as if it would be possible to represent it as a flyweight on a dialectical scale defined by previous discourse:

"smart people use LLMs for development too"!

Might be worth thinking about, but it's also the same discussion that is ongoing and has been had in zillions of other comment sections, dialogues and articles.

I couldn't find any information here, not even an anecdote that would help me understand things that have been talked about ad nauseam already (e.g. "how helpful are coding LLMs for software development").

I'm comparing human vs. LLM decision-making
