I haven't coded in C/C++ in years but friends who do and worked on non-trivial codebase in those languages had a really crappy experience with LLMs too.

A friend of mine only understood why i was so impressed by LLMs once he had to start coding a website for his new project.

My feeling is that low-level / system programming is currently at the edge of what LLMs can do. So i'd say that languages that manage to provide nice abstractions around those types of problems will thrive. The others will have a hard time gaining support among young developers.
