The thing is LLM-assisted C is still memory unsafe and almost certainly has undefined behaviour; the LLM might catch some low hanging fruit memory problems but you can never be confident that it's caught them all. So it doesn't really leave you any better off in the ways that matter.

I don’t code C much, is my passion side language. LLM improves my ability to be productive and quickly. Is not a silver bullet, but is an assist
Almost as well as a human doing it!
Better than a human maybe. But still not good enough to rely on.
