Ok, so they knew where Claude went wrong and could correct for it.

Right: tools like Claude Code amplify existing skills and expertise, they don't replace it.

The main issue here is you can’t acquire expertise by using llm to code for you.

So unless you have 15+ yoe better add more reps. You can always switch to llm code assist in a blink, there is no barrier to entry at all.

Agreed, but I wish I had it as a teacher while learning. The amount of help my interns need from me has reduced by at least 50%, and what remains is the non-trivial stuff which is completely worth my time to coach and mentor them
