I’ve heard from multiple coders that it works “sorta okay” in that context. Fair enough! But you really can’t equate solving a constrained problem (code that does X) and the unbounded problem of creating good writing / art

Oh I agree. Even understanding a domain thoroughly and trying to use an LLM to develop a larger system is not currently possible. LLMs don’t understand things at a cohesive domain scale. But if you’re tired of writing design patterns of known entities, an LLM is an excellent assistant.

to be fair i'm not accusing you of equating those things. but i think lots of people do
