A discussion exploring when LLMs will replace humans in software design loops and whether companies like Anthropic and OpenAI will use RL on architecture datasets.

• •The central question is when the need for a human in the design loop will cease as LLMs are maximally RL-trained on tasks with clear right/wrong answers.
• •It is suggested that Anthropic and OpenAI might internally build or buy datasets of good and bad architecture to apply reinforcement learning.
• •The post notes the shift from LLMs being fancy autocomplete in 2024 to current discussions about building software factories with agents.
