I use LLM to generate complete solutions to small technical problems. "Write an input stream implementation that skips lines based on a regex".

Hard for an IDE auto complete to do this.

Yeah absolutely.

I find Copilot is great if you add a small comment describing the logic or function. Taking 10s to write a one line sentence in English can save 5-10 mins writing your code from scratch. Subjectively it feels much faster to QA and review code already written.

Having good typing and DTOs helps too.
