I hope you aren't missing the point. My position is similar to the author. I WILL take responsibility for the code I push to production, and rather than input a prompt and roll the dice on the outcome, I am strategic in my prompts, ensuring the LLM has the right context each time I I voke it, some of that context being accurate descriptions of what I want built, and I am in charge of ensuring it has been properly vetted. Many times I will erase what the LLM has written and redo it, by myself depending on the situation.

Replace "LLM" with "IDE" and re-read. The LLM is another tool. Of course tools can't be held responsible, the person wielding the tool is.

The contention here is that antirez doesn't think this is necessary anymore. 100% code gen, with the occassional "stepping in and tell the AI how to write a certain function"

Your position is more balanced and quite similar to https://mitchellh.com/writing/non-trivial-vibing
