I never use them to generate code for languages that I know well. Google has started trying to answer my programming related searches with LLM results. Half the time it points me a useful direction, the other half it's just dead wrong.

I have found them pretty helpful writing sql. But I don't really know sql very well and I'd imagine that somebody who does could write what I need in far less time that it takes me with the LLM. While the LLM helps finish my sql task faster, the downside is that I'm not really learning it in the same way I would if I had to actually bang my head against the wall and understand the docs. In the long run, I'd be better off without it.
