I still don't get what you're saying. If you possess enough information to accurately judge the LLM's suggestions you possess enough information to decide on your own. There's not really a way around that.
replyDo you use search engines or do you just memorize all the world’s information?
replyOf course I'm deciding on my own, I'm not letting the LLM decide for me (although some people do). But the point is whatever the suggestion is is merely an implementation detail that either solves my problem or not, not sure what part of that is confusing. Replace LLM with glorified Google and maybe it's less confusing.
replyNo, Google (at least back when it worked) ranked results based on the feedback of other users, so it was a useful signal.
replyTheoretically the LLM would weight more popular suggestions more too. Regardless you're reading too much into this, either use the LLM or don't, I'm not sure if someone else can convince you. As I said for my purposes of getting shit done it works perfectly fine and works more like a research tool than anything else, especially if it can understand my specific use case unlike general research tools like Google or Stack Overflow.
replyIDK man this sounds a lot like my junior devs saying "it works fine for me" as they hand in PRs that break prod
replyIf you don't review the code it generates then that's still on you. There isn't an excuse for handing in breaking PRs like your juniors. It's a tool at the end of the day and it's the responsibility of the user to utilize it correctly.
