The primary job of a development team is the creation and maintenance of a shared mental model of what the software does and how it does it. Periodically, they change the code to implement changes to the mental model that have been agreed upon, or to correct places where the code does not match the model. An LLM cannot reason and does not have a theory of mind and as such cannot participate in the model process or meaningfully access that model — written documentation is at best a memory aid for the model — and thus cannot actually do anything that matters in the process. The executive class would prefer that other people in the org not be permitted to think, let alone paid for it, and therefore willfully confuses the output with the job.
