Yep. Actually ran the rollout for Cursor at my last job, right before I got laid off lmao. I trained a bunch of devs on what do and what not to do. A bunch of my recent interviews have incorporated variations of the question "Do you think you could manage an LLM orchestration that would replace our junior devs?" and, I could but I don't think I can muster the enthusiasm for it that people are looking for. Maybe that's why I haven't made it through the interview gauntlet. So much senior hiring right now seems to be looking for people to be the scapegoat for LLM bullshit and I ain't looking for that kinda work.
