I completely agree. All crediting LLMs does is give the companies that built them precisely the kind of ego stroking feedback they want. I bet Dario giggles with excitement every time he sees "Claude" as the author of a git commit. People are feeding directly into y heir narrative that these tools are not tools but somehow replacements for human beings.

You piloted the LLM, you are responsible for the code. I don't sign my commits with "autocompletions by Intellij". This whole thing is nonsense.

As for the possibilities listed in TFA, I personally think the most common one is people just blaming the tool or hoping to use citation as cover for slop work. It's basically an admission of "I didn't look into this as thoroughly as I myself think I should have to really understand what I'm doing". Don't be that person. If you don't understand what you are doing prompt the LLM with questions until you do understand. It isn't difficult.

Yes, it just a way to remove responsibility in case of problem. Very bad attitude. Whether the code comes from an autocomplete, a LLM, the documentation, a Stack Overflow response or has been 100% typed with your fingers doesn't matter: you're the one in charge.
