I would not say that LLM are useless, just a bit overhyped

I am way more efficient in learning to code having this text bot give me explanations e.g. what which kernel API does

But you have to check to make sure the chatbot isn't hallucinating the answers it gives you, so you could be even more efficient by just looking it up in the first place and skipping the extra step.

Well, I just run the code and see if it works, in like 97% (or even more) of the time, it works as the bot said.
