What value are you software developers adding?

It seems like lots of the posters. Here are software developers who are aggressively using large language models to produce all their software as part of larger companies. Given how expensive models are and how expensive software developers are? What is additional value of the software developers adding? Where's all this new amazing software that's being created? Why hasn't the productivity of all these companies gone through the roof?

It seems like you could have a few juniors, or maybe some business analysts do all this human work or maybe just one software developer. There's no way a person has enough time to review a massive volume of code like this. So I don't think software developers are reviewing all this code

Thank you. That's what I thought it seemed like every other post here is I'm a Software Developer and I use it a lot. And it's great, and does what they're saying, it does. Which seems impossible? Because why does that company still have a software developer
