I appreciate Simon's balanced take on how LLMs can enhance a project when used responsibly.

I'm curious, though—what are this community's opinions on the use of LLMs in programming?

Your problem is you don't understand how llms work. You treat it like a magic genie when its not. Treat it right and you can fly. I integrated a new messaging architecture into my stack the other day that would of taken me weeks before. But I isolated my problem set and targeted what I needed to target. But I also understand what to tell it and how to utilize it as a tool.

In your case, its trivial to just check the methods of the class or know that its a call you're accessing in the first place. That AI can't read your mind if you don't frame the problem correctly.
