Raw LLM Responses

Because it doesn’t actually help with any of the hard parts. It does help a lot with some of the tedious parts, but it never gets past demoware without engineers doing the hard parts. That said, the answer to your more general question is two-fold: 1. Programming has some automated guardrails that the work of most other professions don’t have: it has to be valid syntax and pass unit tests and you can do that in a loop as the AI works it way out of its own hallucinations. You don’t have that for legal briefs. 2. Most software today is incredibly low quality and barely any better than the crap demoware that AI can make now. But the nature of software makes it so incredibly valuable that you can still make a billion dollars selling shit that barely works. Edit: actually three fold (or maybe a variation of #2): there is almost no regulation or official credentialing on software products. Other professions have degree requirements, bar exams, mandated training and continued education, etc. And biggest of all: there is often legal liability elsewhere but not with programming. Software is still the Wild West and if some AI slop wrecks you, you’re probably SOL.
