> who prompts the AI
LLMs are a box where the input has to be generated by someone/something, but also the output has to be verified somehow (because, like humans, it isn't always correct). So you either need a human at "both ends", or some very clever AI filling those roles.
But I think the human doing those things probably needs slightly different skills and experience than the average legacy developer.
Rules engines were designed for just such a thing. Validating input/output. You don’t need a human to prompt AI, you need a pipeline.
While a single LLM won’t replace you. A well designed system of flows for software engineering using LLMs will.
Well, who designs the system of flows?
If you ask the AI labs, the AI systems themselves will build these kinds of workflows for themselves.
That's the goal.
