1/ I am really struggling with how to deal with LLMs.
I still find most public LLMs ethically dubious at best. I'm still not convinced that they can actually code worth a damn, despite insistence that it's improving amazingly rapidly.
OTOH, how much am I holding myself back? It seems obvious that the industry has collectively said "fuck ethics and copyright and the environment", so AI coding is going to be around a long time.
At what point am I just lighting myself on fire for no reason?
