100% agree. I spend hours working on specs, project requirements -> tech spec -> testing -> validation -> roadmap. Making sure to capture intent and constraints. And then i let an llm orchestration have at it. I agree with others in this thread, that I don't understand how others don't do this and feel comfortable pushing to prod. I'd feel even more embarrassed if I vibed something to prod and it broke. That being said, I honestly feel like I'm doing way more "software engineering" now than ever in regards to really understanding every aspect and intention of the features I'm implementing. And even then I still miss things, but it's not catastrophic and re-aligning later is much easier.

But yes I agree, I don't let the llm "design" or even "ideate" with it. I have it run validation on my own assumptions and see if those hold up, but even when they don't I am the one to construct the solution.
