> LLMs can write a large fraction of all the tedious code you’ll ever need to write.

For most software projections, they cannot even remotely do that - at least not today and as far as I can tell.

And that is to say, it's not that they can write a not-so-large fraction. They cannot write any significant fraction of it. They can often write you a draft that helps you get there faster, though. They can also facilitate web search result consolidation etc. which can also help. But - they can also lead you down wrong paths and dead-ends, on occasion.
