Yup, someone was able to, but nobody did. At least I can't find a pre-LLM application like this. That's my point, LLMs are not better than a RE expert, I'm quite sure of it, but it has now put that expertise in hands of random people with weird ideas. Things are about to get super weird and I at least am here for it. I hate these techbro companies as much as the next guy but computing has been in the hands of big institutions (original computing was for military applications for example, even early unix was developed in that context). People railed against the military use of computing while using it to create beautiful things we still use today.
A phrase has been rolling in my head since all this LLM stuff started, you don't hate AI you hate capitalism. Every objection I've heard for LLMs are basically an issue of the benefits and power being concentrated in a small set of hands.
