I beg to differ. I'll often do a short LLM session to figure out an issue and will use my existing knowledge and experience to drive the LLM towards some solution. When the answer seems legit enough, I'll copy it back to the one asking.

It's not that different to what we were doing back in the day when search engines were still useful. I often wound up replying with a link either to a stackoverflow question or a blog post. There was still a knowledge/experience component involved in evaluating if the proposed solution fits the original question.



Yeah but this is like the folks who just pasted the first hit or the first SO reply without even reading it and that sucked too.


Unfortunately nowadays you can't easily see if enough effort went into the reply.
