That's a strawman.

Nobody is saying it's "unlimited powers", that's your exaggeration.

And what you're proposing about an "AI only company" seems to be based on your misunderstanding.

What this article is saying is, you need the same number of senior developers, but now each one is essentially assisted by a few junior developers virtually for free.

That's huge. But saying you want to see an "AI only company" as "proof" has nothing to do with that.

And what you're describing -- "occasionally useful for exploring apis, odd bits of knowledge etc, but overall wasted more time than it has saved" -- is exactly what the author explicitly addresses at the top:

> If you were trying and failing to use an LLM for code 6 months ago, you’re not doing what most serious LLM-assisted coders are doing. People coding with LLMs today use agents...

The entire article is about how to use LLM's effectively. What kind of "proof" do you really want, when the article explains it all awfully clearly?
