Bikeshedding seems to have shifted from code to LLMs which is a step further.

We used to have the very difficult task of producing working scalable maintainable code describing complex systems which do what we need them to do.

Now on top of it we have the difficult task of producing this code using constantly mutating complex nondeterministic systems.

We are the circus bear riding a bicycle on a high wire now being asked to also spin plates and juggle chainsaws.

Maybe singularity means that time sunk into managing LLMs is equal to time needed to manually code similar output in assembly or punch cards.
