> LLMs would have helped my co-researcher out a lot. This describes me quite well. During the last few days I was working on getting the matrix for an integral operator, using Chebyshev polynomials. Numpy has regular and Chebyshev polynomials, but the documentation is a bit of a mess. I asked ChatGPT for help. It didn't work that well. But it got me started. It took a bit, because Numpy has actually 2 APIs for all their polynomials, and the ChatGPT code was mixing them. Once I figured that out, I decided to stick to a single API, and I finished the code snipped in about half an hour. Without ChatGPT it would have been much more difficult. How many people out there are aware of the Chebyshev polynomials in numpy? Certainly nobody in my circle. ChatGPT was aware, but it was also hallucinating quite a bit. Still, it helped me get the job done.
