Using LLMs to build dozens of prototypes and test them before committing to a direction is one of their great strengths.
replyYou no longer have to guess which paths will pay off. Have the LLM test them all, then go back and write the best one how you wanted to.
Yes it's a pretty well thought out policy. It feels bad for someone to put in a month of work and have their code ultimately rejected, but if an llm does something sloppy with some light guidance in a few days, then great, experiment with some weird stuff and see what happens, then once you know it probably should work, go in for that month of work and make it happen.
replyThis is why LLM generated PRs are great… they should just be opened as issues instead.
replyThat's a good point. I've gotten a few PRs to a project I work on, where the general idea is good, bit the actual code has serious issues, so I end up just implementing the idea myself in a better way.
