I feel like 95% of the developers who are touting AI are doing web dev or app development - a field which has low stakes, low barrier to entry, and an incredible amount of reinventing the wheel - all things that an LLMs is naturally going to excel with. I can't imagine you'd hold these same beliefs if you were writing control software for a life saving medical device where a single bug could kill someone, where the board package is proprietary and not understood by an LLM, and the thing is written in a C dialect combining only half the features of C99 with a subset of obscure compiler flags.
