That sounds like a relatively good place to be,
It’s an absolutely miserable place to be if you take any pride in codeing. Spending time on design and architecture decisions is part of the skill, but the art is in elegantly solving the details. Spending your day reviewing code churned out by an LLM, is a soulless and tedious way to spend your life.

Spending your day reviewing code churned out by an LLM, is a soulless and tedious way to spend your life. Someone has always had to review the code. And the author has always been responsible for their PRs meeting a quality bar. I don’t see how this is any more soulless or tedious than before we had LLMs. Maybe you just never enjoyed reviewing code in the first place, and now you have to do it more?
