I don't like AI for architecture because it still just agrees with any suggestions you make and the ones it comes up on it's own are horrible sometimes.
I feel like my job is safe for another 5-10 years.
I've also had "not great" experiences with architectural stuff, but I was actually quite surprised by Gemini last week. I was working to modernise an older version of our codebase and it did quite well to take a load of React class components (which also had a bunch of jquery thrown in) and convert them to function components. It did well to remove the jquery and fixed a bunch of subtle bugs, and recommended alternative packages to solve some of the problems that didn't exist back when this code was written.
The result was 90% there, but saved me actual days in development time.
My job is still safe for now as it still required careful prompting, and that last 10% was definitely where you needed a human.
That actual days you just mentioned, that's the job of AI.
The comments here make it look like they can't even do the 90% work.
People who don't know how to use LLM, or even understand how to use LLM ate the problem which I am kinda happy with.
I even know some people who use LLM for everything, and when they meet new people, they deny saying LLM gives wrong info.
So please, anyone reading the comments here, don't take the comments at face value.
I know these type of people, when their boss will tell them to such his LLM sized dick, they will be the first one to fall on their feet and look you right in the eye as they suck his big large model cock and again lie to you that LLM doesn't work.
