If I understand correctly, one of the big concerns about LLM is the loss of control. In practice, this is already happening on a small and medium scale. I’ve seen teams that repeatedly generate the code for an entire package just to change details, simply because they lost control over the code. Fortunately, some are already aware of that risk.

The other thing is that this technology is very resource-intensive, especially memory and storage. This will make it even harder for many people to acquire new hardware. It’s interesting to see how the NetBSD community is already taking steps to avoid unnecessary hardware upgrades:
