"LLMs are great at writing boilerplate code that you don't want to deal with!"
Bud, friend, pal, have you heard of this thing called 'dependencies', they're written by people who actually understand the problem domain and you can even update them!
Turns out this was never actually a technical argument, huh?
But instead an ideological one, being unwilling to trust other people but being totally fine with trusting a technology regardless of its track record

@joepie91 also, like, if you find yourself writing enough boilerplate that you need a tool for it, maybe consider how you ended up in that situation, and refactor things
It's particularly 'funny' how people who have been complaining about dependencies for years and how they're too big a risk and you can't trust anyone to get it right and you're irresponsible if you're use them, etc. etc. etc.
... are now singing the praises of a *known and documented* lying and plagiarism machine that has absolutely no provenance tracing whatsoever, nor any sort of isolation of the third-party code, nor any understanding of the problem domain, nor any way to even *talk about* the unmanaged dependencies it dumps into your code base with a shared language (like you can do with, say, package names)
