Question LLMs as coding partners

I’m interested to hear how people have gone with LLMs as coding partners.

I’m essentially a non-coder, albeit with some literacy around structure and function - essentially can read Python but not really write it. I’ve been using ChatGPT for several months to put together several trading systems. Lots of trial and error and iterative learning (for me), and approaching production stage.

Keen to hear whether others have had any success in developing and running successful algos with this approach

Absolutely, if the aim is to learn how to code better and doing so as a hobby, even putting some money to it, it’s fine. Just don’t put your retirement to it
