In my banking megacorp, despite having officially title of senior sw engineer, coding is maybe 10% of my time spent. And its the best, most creative part I actually enjoy. Why would I give up that? No real velocity gained even if all would be 1 click away in flawless production-ready state.
The real cruft of seniority is: processes, knowing right people and their buttons, politics, being there to fix obscure corner case production issues and so on. How can llm help me with that? It can't.
For code sweatshops they may be a blessing, for corporations drowning in regulations and internal abysmal labyrinths of their IT, not so much.
