Ask HN: Is there a need for YAML in post-LLM world?

Curious to know your opinion about YAML and other DSL created to make workflows/processes less software engineering (imperative) and more configuration (declarative).Take a look at K8s for example, lots and lots of YAML configurations, which was used for human readability, but with LLMs do we still need them?Wouldn t it be easier with LLMs to say: expose this service with 10 pods and enable only internal routing - which then updates couple lines of Python code (pulumi, aws cdk and etc,.) instead of generating 5 yaml files each with at least 40 lines of YAML and also try to reuse same attributes/labels/tags

yaml lots llms lines post world
