> I have a feeling the people who write these haven't really used LLMs for programming because even just playing around with them will make it obvious that this makes no sense

This is one problem with LLM generated code. It is very greenfield. There’s no correct or even good way to do it. Because it’s a little bit unbounded in possible approaches and quality of output.

I’ve tried tracking prompt history in many permutations as a means to documenting and making rollbacks more possible. I hasn’t felt like that's the right way to think about it.
