I find it to be very useful for functional programming since the limited scope aligns with the limited LLM context.


Assuming you mean the paradigm often known as FP (which makes use of concepts from the Lambda Calculus and Category Theory) and languages like Scala and Haskell that support Pure FP, well… my experience in trying to get LLMs to generate non-trivial FP (regardless the purity) has been entirely useless. I’d love to see an example of how you’re able to get useful code that is non-trivial—by which I mean code that includes useful business logic instead of what’s found in your typical “Getting Started” tutorial.


That's probabaly because AI has read all those "Getting Started" -tutorials.
