To add to the above, LLMs are often shunned because they are non-deterministic. Guess what though: so are humans. Carpenters mismeasure, electricians skip steps, plumbers forget clearances or might not tighten rings fully. The building codes, the inspections, the permits, the trade licenses, the liability… that’s the deterministic scaffolding society has built on top of unreliable practitioners. Software is no different, and the framework for dealing with LLM non-determinism already exists. It’s just utilized insufficiently and unevenly - which is becoming apparent now from the wildly different results people report.
