Many of the work I do involves things I have done before in some form. But all that knowledge is spread out over multiple languages and libraries and the details are often hazy.
LLM's are excellent at stuff that has been done before and they are also fantastic for transposing code from one language to the other.
Looking up code in old projects takes time and brain RAM. Spelling out the steps in pseudo code and then prompt guiding an LLM through figuring out the required code often works great for smaller tasks.
I've also learned many new tricks by just asking it why it made certain choices.
