I use it for coding advice sometimes, as an amateur hobbyist it's really useful to point me in the right direction when facing problems I'm unfamiliar with. I often end up reinventing the proverbial wheel, just worse, but LLMs can help point out standards and best practices that I, as an outsider to the industry, am unaware of.

I find it's good at writing boilerplate and scaffolding code, the stuff I really hate doing.

github copilot is fantastic for exactly this reason… completes a few lines, auto corrects, automatic find and replace, automatically fills a 3 line function body that would otherwise be an extra dependency
