> they also ask questions, and if they are good, they ask the right questions, something LLMs still have a problem with.

Sure, but LLMs do ask some questions already, and there is no reason to think they can’t keep getting better at knowing the right questions to ask.

Humans also often fail to do this well, and I think we all have experience with developers who do a very poor job at understanding what is actually being asked of them.

Maybe LLMs will never become as good as an expert developer at being able to suss out what someone is actually trying to do when they make a request, but it is certain LLMs will become better at it, and there is no reason to currently believe they couldn’t eventually become as good as the best humans eventually.
