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.
