I've not yet managed to successfully write any meaningful contribution to a codebase with an llm, faster than I could have written it myself. Ok sure it writes test code boiler plate for me. Honestly the kind of work im doing requires that I understand the code im reading, more than have the ability to quickly churn out more of it. I think probably an llm is going to greatly speed up Web development, or anything else where the impetus is on adding to a codebase quickly, as for maintaining older code, performing precise upgrades, and fixing bugs, so far ive seen zero benefits. And trust me, I would like my job to be easier! Its not like I've not tried to use these
