The tricky bit IMO is when you’re at the threshold of being able to identify errors it makes. I tested some situations a while ago where I asked for some physics calculations functions. I’m an experienced programmer but haven’t really done anything with physics since high school 20 years ago. The code returned looked plausible and would run, but going through it line by line and looking up the real formulas it turned out to be super wrong.
