> The problem is that the average person doesn't know how to explain & solve a problem in sufficient detail to get a working solution.

I intuit this also is an intrinsic limit to LLM based approaches to "you don't need them expensive programmers no more"

with LLMs magically "generating the solution" you move the responsibility for concise expression of the problem up the ladder.

and then you "program" in prompts, reviewing the LLM-proposed formalization ("code").

I other words, the nature of "programming" changes to prompt engineering. alas you still have to understand formal languages (code)...

so there'll always be plenty to do for humans who can "math" :-)
