No matter how powerful the model is you need to have at least a basic understanding of what the code does for proof it and to iterate on it. I used a LLM to write some automation last week. It got most of it correct but it also did things that were not needed and could be trimmed down to simplify the tasks. Sure, it did 90% of the work for me since a lot of it is boiler-plate but it needed a reasonable amount of tweaking to make it work as intended even with extremely defined prompts and context.

It probably wouldn’t be your second or fifth guess either. The fact I wouldn’t be the first person you think of doesn’t offend me. None of my resumes have ever listed coding expertise as a skill. Most of what I know I picked up through work, which necessitates an understanding of technical language and an interest in programming trends. A little of what I know is osmosis from living in the Bay Area, where tech conversations are unavoidable for anyone with a social life.
