you are saying that even if you understand the code, using an LLM saves you time writing it. fair enough[*]. the problem on my side still is that if you didn't write the code yourself, i have no evidence that you actually understood it. the only way to prove that you understand the code is to write it yourself. that's where the trust building comes in. you may actually understand the code, but i can't trust that you do.

[*] in my opinion it takes more time to verify that the LLM code is correct than it takes to write it yourself. based on that, if you save time using an LLM then you didn't spend enough time to verify that the code is correct.

Some open-source communities have clearly entered the attacking phase in the last year so

i feel it's more like defense, but yes.
