So isn't the heuristic that if your job is easily digestible by an LLM, you're probably replaceable, but if the strong slowdown factor presents itself, you're probably doing novel work and have job security?

Yeah, that sounds about right to me. I wasn't talking about wholesale replacement though, but as a tool/augmentation, I'm not very confident an LLM would be able replace a software engineer, but I can definitely see many workflows of a software engineer being sped up, like the exploration and validation process.
