Prediction: in the year 2030 there will be 6 varieties of code: 1. Python written by LLM 2. Rust written by LLM 3. Golang written by LLM 4. JavaScript written by LLM 5. Java written by LLM 6. COBOL written by people that died in the 20th century

Honestly, I would love to chat with someone that does COBOL translation services. There's probably a big opportunity to automate that now and make a killing in the process.

I work on problems. Sometimes I solve them.

And none of that code will work. :D

Currently, LLMs are capable of performing basic coding tasks, based on examples. 6 years from now they'll likely be involved in writing a lot of basic non/low-reuse IT code, but likely will not be able to perform, still, tasks involving systemic architectural reasoning. Up the coding skill chain I suspect LLMs will be intimately involved in PR reviews, however, and be able to produce test suites and significantly lower defect counts, as well as pinpoint performance issues, help with post-mortems and runtime errors, and much else.
