It's the people that try to use LLMs for things outside their domain of expertise that really cause the problems.

That seems to general. Im a mobile developer and sometimes I need a simple script outside my knowledge area. I needed to scrape a website recently, not for anything serious, but to save me time. Claude wrote it and it works. Its probably trash code, but it works and it helped. But you wouldn't want me using Claude to do important work outside my specific area of focus either or im sure Id cause problems.

I'm talking about people that are accountants that now thing they can create software. Or engineers who think they can now write legal briefs for court.
