1. Mostly written by LLMs, and only superficially reviewed by humans.
2. Written 50-50% by devs and LLMs. Reviewed to the same degree as now.
Software of type 2 will be more expensive and probably of higher quality. Type 1 software will be much much more common, as it will be cheaper. Quality will be lower, but the open question is whether it will be good enough for the use cases of cheap mass produced software. This is the question that is still unanswered by practical experience, and it's the question that all the venture capitalists a salivating about.
I 100% guarantee you there will be plenty of software still written fully by humans—and even more that's written 95% by humans, with minor LLM-based code autocomplete or boilerplate generation.
