You cannot build a tractor unit (the engine-cab half of the tractor-trailer) with Model T Technology even if they are close.
And the changes will be in the auxiliary features. We will figure out ways to have LLMs understand APIs better without training them. We will figure out ways to better focus its context. We will chain LLM requests and contexts in a way that help solve problems better. We will figure out ways to pass context from session to session that an LLM can effectively have a learning memory. And we will figure out our own best practices to emphasize their strengths and minimize their weaknesses. (We will build better roads.)
And as much as you want to say that - a Model T was uncomfortable, had a range of about 150 miles between fill-ups, and maxed out at 40-45 mph. It also broke frequently and required significant maintenance. It might take 13-14 days to get a Model T from new york to los angeles today notwithstanding maintenance issues, and a modern car could make it reliably in 4-5 days if you are driving legally and not pushing more than 10 hours a day.
I too think that self-writing code is not going to happen, but I do think there is a lot of efficiency to be made.
