I've never relied on an LLM to build a large section of code but I can see why people might think it is worth a try. It is incredible for finding issues in the code that I write, arguably its best use-case. When I let it write a function on its own, it is often perfect and maybe even more concise and idiomatic than I would have been able to produce. It is natural to extrapolate and believe that whatever intelligence drives those results would also be able to handle much more.

It is surprising how bad it is at taking the lead given how effective it is with a much more limited prompt, particularly if you buy in to all the hype that it can take the place of human intelligence. It is capable of applying a incredible amount of knowledge while having virtually no real understanding of the problem.
