The whole culture around vibe-coding would need to be changed. As it is, many people using LLMs are proud of the fact that they never touch the code, and almost no one seems to see any value in having any direct human involvement or knowledge at all.
It would be one thing if this were only the case for professional development, or if AI were really being used as "just a tool" but it seems to be the dominant paradigm with AI everywhere, that LLMs have to "win" and all human involvement in coding has to be eliminated. A world where the dominant culture around LLMs was to actually use them for education and aiding code generation instead of entirely abrogating oneself to a black box dopamine machine would be infinitely better than the world we have.
