Time to Ask LLMs to Rewrite Poor, Opaque, and Inflexible Software?

The post raises a thought-provoking question: is it time to leverage Large Language Models (LLMs) to rewrite traditional software that is notoriously poor, opaque, and inflexible?
The referenced context cites Marc Levoy's 2015 article What "mobile-first" means for the future of computer science, implying that the next major paradigm shift in computing (moving towards an AI-first approach) will profoundly impact software engineering and computer science.
