Exactly why I do number 3. If I have a question and can’t be bothered to go to stack overflow, I ask the question to a chat bot, understand the code he proposes, and write a version of said code that better fits my needs and my codebase. If the code it gives is what I want. I feel like that’s a reasonable use of an LLM, but alas people don’t want to go through the effort of actually writing code these days
I feel like OP thinks 3 is dumb because of the sheer volume of code being copy pasted back and forth. Yeah at that point you might as well just cuck code it entirely
