The problem is more on my side than the LLM side. I feel I am 1) losing control of my project, even my hobby ones, because LLM outputs code so fast that I am 2) too lazy to manually review all of them, even if, indeed, I had the overall architecture design choices and sometimes straight up pseudo-code in natural language. But NL is, by definition, not formal, and programming is the process of expanding informal demands into formal languages. It is still fundamentally different from abstraction (like importing a lib) as in software engineering as a means to reduce complexity. The result is that not-going-into-nitty-gritty-impl-details builds the feeling of loss-of-control and -confidence.

This may not read as a coherent submission since it's just my random unsettling thoughts, but I am sure at least some of you fellow HNers feel (felt?) the same. What is your take on this?
