It's true but until some extent. When you are talking about a hypervisor (like Xen), and many many subtle things depending on your CPU brand/model, it's really really *hard*, even with an LLM (and even more with an LLM hallucinating some CPU features or forgetting basic things like Meltdown and Spectre).
However I agree: to learn a topic, LLMs are providing a great speedup. As a CEO/co-founder, I have no issue to hire people without a degree if they are good at what they do. However, our biggest chances are to scout directly in universities to find motivated students (motivation >>> everything else)

As a CEO, are you going to hire that motivated student? Or is it some sort of unpaid internship?

We do not have any unpaid internship. So yes, I will hire them, until we reach a limit of mentors for them, because we cannot leave them alone.
LLM are quite good at explaining systems and frameworks. I would never got into kernel programming without Deepseek guidance.
As for universities: too expensive, too much paperwork, too slow, too elitist.
