WHY I'M DIALING BACK MY LLM USAGE
Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter
When rebuilding infrastructure with Go and ClickHouse, this dev found that LLMs produced buggy and messy code, leading to a cycle of fixing one error only to create new ones. This experience showed a gap between the hype surrounding AI productivity and the reality of its limitations in production environments. Instead, LLMs are best for small tasks like refactoring.
