I feel like this will do almost nothing?

Mindlessly typing something is not much better than copy and pasting?

I could maybe see it if you asked it to spit out pseudocode you had to rewrite. At least there’s some translation there…

But this is bizarre. Write it yourself at that point. Is it any faster (or faster at all frankly) to prompt what you want, manually write it out, and maybe even make adjustments as you go? I’d argue not.

The way I wrote code in the past was to just first comment out what I wanted to do, and then underneath write the syntax for it. You could maybe do this too? Take the LLM code, and go through commenting what each section does to be able to effectively break it up? It still seems dumb.
