Essentially you're paying human to be a proxy between the requirements, LLM and codebase. Some people I'm talking to lament having to pay top dollar to their junior (and other kinds I'm sure) devs for this, but I think this is and will be the new reality and new normal. And instead we should start thinking how to make best of it, and how to help maximize success for these devs.
Few decades down the road though we are likely to be viewing this current situation similar to how we're looking at 'human computers'[0] of yesteryear.
