Even more important than those things, is how well you can write and communicate your ideas. If you cannot communicate your ideas so a human could implement it as you wanted it to without asking extra questions, a LLM isn't gonna be able to.


As someone who has managed engineers for many years I find those skills immediately applicable to the LLM domain. If you aren't used to communicating what you are trying to build to other engineers I think using the AI is harder as you need to develop those skills.


I'd take it a step further and say that for any engineer who is used to collaborating with others, engineers or not, should have these skills already, but as most of us know, communication is a generally lacking skill among the population at large, even among engineers too.


Natural language programming has arrived in my opinion. If you're not a developer or have any experience programming it won't help much
