The thing is, this is most certainly the case. I’m willing to bet that every dev uses LLMs every now for certain tasks. Having it find a bug you just can’t find yourself because you’ve been at the problem for like an hour, or have it implement a method that you already know how it should look like so it’s basically just a big autocomplete.
