It regurgitates old code, it cannot come up with new stuff.
The trick is, most of what you write is basically old code in new wrapping. In most projects, I’d say the new and novel part is maybe 10% of the code. The rest is things like setting up db models, connecting them to base logic, set up views, api endpoints, decoding the message on the ui part, displaying it to user, handling input back, threading things so UI doesn’t hang, error handling, input data verification, basic unit tests, set up settings, support reading them from a file or env vars, making UI look not horrible, add translatable text, and so on and on and on. All that has been written in some variation a million times before. The actual new interesting part is gonna be a small small percentage of the total code.

Yea, I use it for home assistant, it’s amazingly powerful… And so incredibly dumb
It will take my if and statements, and shrunk it to 1/3 the length, while being twice as to robust… While missing that one of the arguments is entirely in the wrong place.
