I just don’t understand this claim that it’s faster to tell an LLM to do something than to just do it. Yes for large tasks, but the author discusses “edits” and being heavily involved with “pedantic” requests. It’s not specific enough to evaluate but what I’m picturing from their description makes the argument dubious to me

I see, It could be less brain blocking to just explain or tell the llm your story, and whule it codes you can move on thinking, but seeing my juniors... it is also less brain blocking.. so they dont think anymore.. its just a rainbow of thougts and features, and nice ideas (like brainstorming), but working in healthcare it, this could be deadly.
