Programmers grow in knowledge as they write code. Compilers are deterministic and don't cost you more for each line of code.

Determinism and practical knowledge is how most systems are maintained. It's how you fix bugs.

LLMs don't learn anything after being deployed. They're probabilistic and cost you more the larger and more complex your system becomes.

Are we thinking of tests like we've never done before? Are we prepared to build platforms again from scratch when they become untenable?
