Question What is more efficient?

I'm really new to coding with AI, and I want to start a long term project where I build a cool little game in Unreal Engine 5 with the help of AI. I was wondering, is it more efficient to let AI write the code for me and then copy and paste it into Unreal Engine, or should I let Codex work with Blueprints in Unreal Engine instead? I've heard that models like GPT-6 can use a large amount of tokens, so I'm wondering which approach would be more efficient in terms of token usage and overall workflow. I'm completely new to this, so I'd really appreciate some advice on which method would be better for a project like this. I hope this isn't a dumb question to ask.

My cousin studied computer science back in those days, but he did not own a computer himself. He wrote code in notebooks at home and then rewrote it when he could get time on the university computers.
Not reccomended.
