I’ve been using it to teach me things I’ve never thought of, or solutions to problems that I would hope a senior dev would be able teach. As someone that has never been able to acquire a paid position, it’s been helpful for implementing some solutions.

Though I don’t commit a single line of code the LLM produces without understanding what/why/how the code works. I’ve been super adamant that it doesn’t give me code that I can’t actually write a test for also. It’s slower than just slamming some ASCII Doom clone through, but - I hope - doesn’t have me punching myself in the face in two years.
