> Did he consider that the LLM wouldve done it the right way after the first message if prompted correctly? I think the article is implicitly saying that an LLM that's skilled enough to write good code should have done it "the right way" without extra prompting. If LLMs can't write good code without human architects guiding it, then I doubt we'll ever reach the "10x productivity" claims of LLM proponents. I've also fell into the same trap of the author in assuming that because an LLM works well when guided to do some specific task, that it will also do well writing a whole system from scratch or doing some large reorganization of a codebase. It never goes well, and I end up wasting hours arguing with an LLM instead of actually thinking about a good solution and then implementing it.
