I’ve tried but found it to be a distraction. Instead of focusing on the design and code now I have to focus on getting something out of a wiggling llm algorithm which I need to corner into producing what I need - and then troubleshoot the output.

It’s 10x easier and more direct to just do it myself, distilling my mental model into precise instructions.

Maybe it works better for languages with more boilerplate- I use Ruby which is quite terse.
