You joke but that’s basically the conclusion of both the newer agent studies and the older Xerox park study on peripheral use. Language and logic are stored in an easier to access location in the brain than the kinds of skills used in architecture and planning.
To be clear, I’m no rube. I recognize that these are powerful tools. But I suppose my take here is that if an LLM is necessary to get rid of a lot of the boilerplate and setup for a task that indicates we should explore how we’re doing the task.
What I want to see is using these tools not to delegate our problem solving but finding ways to enhance and accelerate it and I don’t think writing spec sheets is the answer.
I think you’re correct, the amount of rigor in your prompts seems orthogonal from whether you’re using them for architecture or implementation.
