I've been using LLMs with a project that I simply don't have enough time for. I've built the core of it during most of last year. And in the past 6 months or so I've been using LLMs to help me out with some of the more tedious stuff. Half the time it doesn't quite get it right, and some of that time it's just flat out wrong. It's usually when I get the LLM to try to hunt down some bug or something. After a couple tries, I give up on the LLM and figure out the problem myself.

I genuinely don't believe this "offloading your thoughts to an LLM" idea is universal. For someone still in school and learning? Probably 100% true. But for someone established in a skill, I don't think it's true, at least not entirely.
