Please explain this "adapting". The LLM sellers' holygrail is * you just need to crank our model bro *. With this mindset, there is no adaptation needed, save a couple of weeks of getting up to speed with nuances of using the models, the / commands and integration of their APIs into your workflow.

You gotta ignore what the LLM sellers are saying and listen to the people who don't have a financial incentive to sell a particular message.

  • It's not just corpo talk. The ultimate goal in LLM and AI progress is "replacement" of professional knowledge workers. In the march of the 9s of the accuracy of the generated LLM output, the engineers role would matter less and less.

    It's asking engineers to "adapt" to being efficient in filling out the last 10% then 1% then 0.1% then 0.01%.
