You can use the LLM, but you don't also have the rest of the data they relied on. A LLM can generate everything if it starts from a minimal prompt, but this is a recipe for slop. If you come with materials, discuss them, their implications, express your POV and then generate, the article will reflect your ideas and the data if was fed.

I know it is fashionable to put everything a LLM outputs in the slop box, but I don't think it reflects reality.

Then the LLM can still make shit up and be absolutely wrong.
