I'm learning coding right now in college and my professors are making sure we know how to effectively work with LLMs when coding.
It should never be used for generating code for anything other than examples. One should always remember it will answer what is asked and nothing more, and must make considerations for this when adapting generated code for your uses. Its best to treat it like a frontend for parsing documentation and translating it into simpler language, or translating a function in one language to another.
Fantastic approach.
