“10x engineers” are a thing, and if we assume they’re high-agency people always looking to streamline and improve their workflows, we should expect them to be precisely the people who get a further 10x boost from LLMs.
I highly doubt this. A 10x engineer is likely already bottlenecked by non-coding work that AI can’t help with, so even if they 10x their coding, they may not increase overall productivity much.
