Faster iteration means i mentally checkout less and am more involved with the code being created.
My hope is that in the far far future, we can get LLMs so fast that i can work in my IDE like normal and the LLM will just be an extension of autocomplete. I can state a goal, rough out functions, code, etc, and it'll just work around me like a very fast pair programmer / autocomplete.
The chat interface is an intermediate step that frankly i hate. The faster it is the less i wait.
Now for vibe-slop i'm making on the side, yea i don't care about speed. But that's not something i'm employed to do or anything i truly care about. It's a different workflow entirely.
