My own usage of LLMs to help me code has resulted in me learning more and producing higher quality output.

You have to use them diligently, but it's definitely possible to avoid the obvious downsides of working in this way.

Because I have the same level of experience and to me, for my way of working, they're obviously mostly useless.

same and 100% sure can do it for another 25+ if I wanted to work that long
