The biggest point is that you must be an expert in the field you are using it in. I rarely get fooled by hallucinations and stupid bugs because they are glaringly obvious to me. The best use case is having the llm write code for using a library that has poor documentation, that am going to use once, and I am too lazy to learn.
These tools are scary when used by juniors, they are creating more work for everyone by using llms to code. I just imagine myself using this when I was a fresh grad, it is terrifying. It would have only been one step up from vibe coding.
I feel so bad for recent grads. First COVID then AI/LLMs, it’s such a bad time to be starting out. I feel so fortunate that I’m well into my career and can use AI responsibly without having to worry too much about it.

may well be a Gell-Mann amnesia simulator when used improperly.
