If you need to babysit it for every line of code, you're either a superhuman coder, working in some obscure alien language, or just using the LLM wrong.

No. I'm just using for simple things like "Help me with the Elixir code" or "I need to list Bonjour services using Swift".

It's shit across the whole "AI" spectrum from ChatGPT to Copilot to Cursor aka Claude.

I'm not even talking about code I work with at work, it's just side projects.

As for "using LLMs wrong", using them "right" is literally babysitting their output and spending a lot of time trying to reverse-engineer their behavior with increasingly inane prompts.

Edit: I mean, look at this ridiculousness: https://cursor.directory/
