LLMs can be great for translating pseudo code into real code or creating boiler plate or automating tedious stuff, but ChatGPT is terrible at actual software engineering.
Honestly I just use it for the boilerplate crap.
Fill in that yaml config, write those lua bindings that are just a sequence of lua_pushinteger(L, 1), write the params of my do string kind of stuff.
Saves me a ton of time to think about the actual structure.
