It's truly bizarre to read about all these people who just give up on any understanding about what they are working on.

I very regularly use plan mode not to even make a plan of action itself, but to better understand what possible issues might come up when implementing some feature or fixing some bug. And it is quite common for me to fix or rewrite certain findings that AI comes up because its assumptions are not quite right or don't align with overall goal.

And yet so many seem to be perfectly fine leaving all the decisions to AI - even if it's going in the wrong direction. I suppose that's all the people who got into software purely for money or status - never really caring about the actual thing they are working on.

They believe they know, because they have LLMs to tell them, but they don’t often get to the point of being able to have a conversation about it
