Unfortunately we're probably still quite far from that. This is the best case for LLMs still - the quality of their output didn't matter as long as it worked, and there was a near-perfect oracle for checking if their output worked.

That's a really good use case for LLMs. It also applies to things like finding proofs in Lean and creating test stimulus. In both cases you know automatically whether the output is good, and it doesn't really matter if it isn't.

That isn't the case for most bugs, and definitely isn't the case for actually fixing bugs.
