Use of LLMs to program really doesn't make much sense. The very nature of computer software is that it's a small effort from a small number of people that is multiplied out to massive productivity gains for a large number of people. Unless the LLM is producing better output than the people would, you are saving time for a small number of people in exchange for degrading the experience of a much larger number of people. If your AI-coded app goes down for a day and you have to vibe-debug it, that is probably gonna put you in the red from a time perspective.

With the amount of supervision you need to give this stuff, I can't see it being useful for much more than auto-completing the next few lines of code as you type. You've got to read and go over the whole output carefully anyway, so you might as well have finer grained control over it.
