I agree, this article is basically what I've been thinking as I play with these things over time. They've gotten a ton better but the hot takes are still from 6-12 months ago.

One thing I wish he would have talked about though is maintenance. My only real qualm with my LLM agent buddy is the tendency to just keep adding code if the first pass didn't work. Eventually, it works, sometimes with my manual help. But the resulting code is harder to read and reason about, which makes maintenance and adding features or behavior changes harder. Until you're ready to just hand off the code to the LLM and not do your own changes to it, it's definitely something to keep in mind at minimum.
