    Yeah, I think helping people who don’t know how to code and letting them dabble is a great use case. I fully encourage that.

    I don’t think it’s actually good for generating scaffolding in terms of helping people write quality software, but I do agree with you that that’s how people are going to use it, and then the expectation is going to become that you have to do things that fast. It’s kind of mindboggling to me that anyone would look at the software industry and decide that our problem is that we don’t move fast enough. Moving too fast for speed’s own sake is already the cause of so many of our problems.

      True. I havent yet used any of these services, but from how i see things LLMs should be used to help with research and as a primary source about a topic.
