I'm hoping to exit the industry (eg., retire) as soon as is practical. It's just not fun any more and this was the shit-icing on the cake for me.

Now, LLMs being used to check for vulnerabilities... that I'm not really against, machine-learning is good at pattern recognition and it seems to be legitimately useful at that from what I've heard.

But as 'intelligence' or a trustworthy search mechanism for retrieving and re-synthesizing (note I did not use the words 'authoring' or 'creating') anything more than simple standalone functions? Nope, nope nope. Too many hallucinations and I didn't fall in love with programming and computer science only to end up being a reverse centaur, slaving away at prompts to actively steer a stochastic slot-machine into writing the proper code for a task.
