LLM's are very good at answering technical questions and suggesting new approaches to coding something (whether it's right or not, there is much out there to learn). If you're a noob, it doesn't judge you and stonewall your attempts to pose questions like stackoverflow does. Copilot can accelerate coding with its autocomplete on steroids, doing things like writing out formatted docstrings and completing lines of code according to the logic of the surrounding code. You can easily inspect these small contributions. Trying to get an LLM to code something with any complexity results in mass confusion. I tried it, and it was a learning experience, and a debugging festival. If you're a junior and you rely on LLM's right out of the chute, you're going to be a mushbrain coder I bet.
