The number of secretaries declines after answering machines became more prevalent.
You can keep throwing ad hominin if you think it's helping change reality. I wish we weren't headed this way, I really do, but we are. So we might as well confront reality. Catch you in 3 years when whatever happens - happens.

I wish I had 1 euro for whenever crypto shills told me those exact words regarding the inevitably of cryptocurrency replacing actual currency.
Note that I said 1 euro and not 1 of some shitcoint.
This is not how it works. I am only punching wind because your arguments are as solid as air.
Comparing an LLM to a Junior Dev is like comparing a Secretary to an Answering Machine - both can technically answer calls, so they must be somewhat similar? What a load of hot, steaming bullshit.
> No one is claiming A = C, so don't keep punching the wind. They are claiming A ~= C.
And I am claiming that A != C. I was not even arguing against they are equal, I am arguing against them being similar in any way.
I maintain what I said before, I sincerely doubt the competence and experience in real life professional setting of anyone claiming LLMs are in anyway remotely similar to junior devs
