Mate, all it does is predict the next word or phrase. It doesn't know what you're trying to do or have any ethics. When it fucks up it's going to be your fuckup and since you relied on the bot rather than learned to do it yourself you're not going to be able to fix it.

I understand how it works, but that's irrelevant if it does work as a tool in my toolkit. I'm also not relying on the LLM, I'm taking it with a massive grain of salt. It usually gets most of the way there, and I have to fix issues or have it revise the code. For simple stuff that'd be busy work for me, it does pretty well.

It would be my fuck up if it fucks up, and I don't catch it. I'm not putting code it writes directly into production, I'm not stupid.
