WHY LLMS CAN'T REALLY BUILD SOFTWARE

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

LLMs can't truly build software. While LLMs are great at generating and updating code, they struggle to maintain clear mental models of code and requirements, leading to confusion and flawed decision-making. This limitation is due to issues like context omission, recency bias, and hallucination, preventing LLMs from properly iterating towards working solutions for complex tasks.
