It’s not so clear cut as it’s made out to be here. Of course writing code should never have been your bottleneck to begin with. What LLMs have done is to remove “I need to write the code” as an excuse.

This is an interesting realignment of the org chart. I’m not sure whether we’ll reach that endpoint, but it’s obvious to divide the team into the factors laid out in the article.
