What LLM's For Coding Should Actually Look Like

Using LLMs for coding, like CursorAI, can make you lose touch with your codebase by generating code quickly without fully understanding it. While they are helpful for simple projects, they may hinder the learning process for more complex tasks. A balanced approach where LLMs suggest repeatable code and methods, rather than full auto-completion, can be more beneficial. Moreover, integrating AI-enhanced documentation and best practices recommendations can create a healthier coding environment. Ultimately, LLMs should assist in making engineers better at their jobs, not replace them.
