But LLM will figure it out so why not take free speed?
BTW, also if we're getting rid of a web framework and letting the LLM write specialized code for the various CRUD operations, why not also get rid of Postgres/MySQL/Redis and let LLM also write specialized code for reading, writing, and querying the various business objects?
once all interactions appear instantaneous to a human, which is usually possible even with python et al, reducing CPU usage doesn't matter in 99.9% of cases that the app never gets popular enough that the savings in running the app would even add up to the cost of a LLM subscription.
Also, in most instances CRUD apps could run with their own data structures and filesystem data persistence. Not to say its a good idea,But I'd wager you could get on the frontpage with "show HN: I build a ToDo app that's 10x cheaper to run on AWS than Django".
In reality SQL databases, along with programming languages, OS utilities, webservers, crytography, and probably a few other technologies are basically bedrock technologies that LLM builds upon and have durable value, unlike Dev Tools / Frame Works / Simplified Human Interface wrapper projects, such as django ansible and the thousands of similar projects .
The more LLMs *CAN* code, human oriented coding tools and concerns become worthless.
