Abstract
Embracing LLMs is definitely a correct and even necessary direction for software enterprises to improve quality and efficiency. However, achieving systematic and comprehensive intelligent software development still requires careful consideration and there is much fundamental work to do. For enterprises, solidifying the digitization and knowledge accumulation of software development, as well as the fundamental capabilities of software engineering such as requirement analysis, design, and validation, remains crucial and is also a basic condition for achieving higher levels of intelligent development. For academic research, there is still much work to do in the direction of systematic and comprehensive intelligent software development. This also requires us have a deeper understanding of the complexity of software systems and software requirements and design, based on understanding the capabilities of LLMs.
