Lots of anti-ai people in this thread it seems. I get it - personally I HATE the fake image generation! But I have to agree with you in terms of coding that using LLM's correctly can offer huge benefits.
Modern harnesses are getting more and more sophisticated and your milage varies depending on how well you use them (like any complex tool). At the end of the day it's still up to the developer to take the code and make sure it's correct - no different from before where we used to copy code from Stack Overflow or other examples and modify them for our own use.
One thing I have to add - I honestly don't understand why anyone would use Claude or chatgpt at their ridiculous prices when DeepSeek exists..
The question comes down to cost. The actually good models are already expensive, yet still apparently subsidised. Once we have to pay the true cost they will only be worth using when you are truly stuck.
Lots of use for the simpler models for basic util creation and simpler cleanup refactor stuff though. Quite nice if it actually turns out like that.
