I am a software dev and use LLMs daily but that’s not what I’m talking about, I’m talking about vibe coded products built new. I find LLMs much less useful at things that are not already built. I’ve watched initiative after initiative fail because of too much dogmatic AI usage and leaning on it to do design which then falls over on its face.
Fast at first especially to a PoC but then you hit a time when the arch just gets so grimy it falls over, you ship the wrong thing and you end up in rework hell. This isn’t guaranteed but when it’s teams of people slinging slop it gets worse and worse, the best devs burn out from trying to manage the ones who believe AI will save them.

Its like the problems of outsourcing all the time
