My experience with that so far has been that, yes, that works quite well as long as the thing you ask is common and reasonably simple. The more uncommon and complex it gets, the less successful this tends to be. And in more uncommon cases, if it is successful in terms of the workability of the emitted code, it's often not clear if the approach taken is a good idea at all considering other aspects like maintainability.
LLMs are notoriously bad at just saying "Hey dude, I don't really know what I am doing here, ok?"
Also, I have often been able to trace their responses back directly to SO answers. Usually, there is not much "creativity" in their answers at all.
