It might be nice if language and library authors at least included a really good prompt detailing all the required changes so an LLM can take a first pass at fixing everything.

Even better if it can be done with a deterministic codemod, but a prompt is easier to write.



Shoehorning AI/LLMs into every possible thing in existence is counterproductive and wouldn't help in this situation.


I was hesitant to post it, but migrations are one of the good use cases IMO. They're very mechanical and easy for LLM to follow.
