An LLM is a tool. It's your choice how you use it. I think there are at least two ways to use it that are helpful but don't replace your thinking. I sometimes have a problem I don't know how to solve that's too complex to ask google. I can write a paragraph in ChatGPT and it will "understand" what I'm asking and usually give me useful suggestions. Also I sometimes use it to do tedious and repetitive work I just don't want to do.
I don't generally ask it to write my code for me because that's the fun part of the job.
