Devs debate whether LLMs bring back siloed engineering
Original: "Are we back to Silo Engineering? … … the Silo Engineer would retreat into his cubicle to Create … Seems like with LLMs
Software developers are debating whether large language models are returning the profession to an era of 'silo engineering', where engineers worked alone in cubicles building things in isolation. The discussion suggests that with LLMs writing code, developers may again retreat into solo workflows, though commenters note this time is different because the tools are shared and collaborative rather than isolated.
Why now: LLM coding tools are rapidly changing how developers work, reviving old debates about collaboration versus solitary coding.
