LLMs are great for learning though, you can easily ask them questions, and you can evaluate your understanding every step of the way, and gradually build the accuracy of your world model that way. It’s not uncommon for me to ask a general question, drill deeper into a concept, and then either test things manually with some toy code or end up reading the official documentation, this time with at least some exposure to the words that I’m looking for to answer my question.


This is how I use them- but I also use them to write initial UI's (usually very primitive). Because I've got an issue where the UI has to be perfect, and if I can blame somebody/something other than me I can ignore it until the UI becomes important enough.


If I wanted a confident and simple answer with no regard for veracity, I would just ask a politician.
