    It's all relative to what your goals are and what you're most experienced with. Your "hard parts" are someone else's "easy parts".

    The machine doesn't give a shit what you think is hard. You still can't throw away any of the code that you don't understand. The machine needs it all and you choose to stay ignorant.

    Experience of the topic at hand absolutely still matters, and even moreso with LLMs. The unhealthy approach is to delegate your work and bury your head in the sand. The healthy approach is to use LLMs to learn and do faster.
