The only thing to do is ride the wave of the new technology. You either do that or drown. I've written a literal book's worth of text on how AI should think and behave when writing software and it straight up cannot write code as well as me when left to its own devices, even with all my guidance. LLMs, no matter the size, are structurally incapable of holding all the context needed to write good code in complex systems because they cannot compress complex topics into ideas they've never encountered and reason about the compressed state with their limited reasoning capacity (otherwise known as "learning").
