LLMs have had very little influence on my programming so far.

I’d be surprised if they had, working on what you work on! I’ll bet you would find them interesting in other ways, though. I’ve had a ton of success using them as study guides in other areas (e.g., biology).

I predict this is likely to change in 2025, if you explore with them -- unless there are constraints that make using them impractical (security or policy or bureaucracy being the ones that come to mind). I've experimented continuously with LLMs for over a year as a solo developer. For example, I have been using a workflow where I write a design document and often work alongside the LLM to keep the code and document in-sync.

P.S. I used to do a lot of Clojure, and definitely appreciate your work on it!
