@jens AI is too confusing of a term, especially when talking about assistance. e.g., can text to speech or voice recognition technology be called AI? It certainly doesn't a rainforest destroying LLM level of technology; it's been around for at least 35 years.
I don't stay abreast of all the assistive technology, but is there any that really requires LLMs at massive scale?
Software development has never been "art" or "craft"; it's science. The former terms are for hobbyists, and such attitudes have kept measurement definition/development underutilized. This has led to over 8000 programming languages, without empirical evidence of efficacy, and lessor numbers of processes to the same effect.
