What do you mean you don’t need to understand? So what do you do when there’s a bug that an LLM can’t fix?

If your bottleneck is typing the code, you must be a junior programmer.

I don't need to understand the theory of mind because I don't have the LLM design the code, I tell it what the design is. If I need something, I can read the functions I told it to implement, which is really simple.

They said that they don't need to understand the LLM's theory of mind. I think that's crystal clear.

If there is a bug, it's vastly more likely that Opus 4.5 will spot it before I can.

Do you know one of the primary signifiers of a senior developer? Effective delegation.

Typing speed has nothing to do with any of this.

It's not about understanding the LLM's theory of mind - the direct quote was

> Understanding the theory of mind that composes the system

i.e. the logic underpinning how the system works
