I have anecdotally found this to be true as well, that an LLM greatly accelerates my ramp up time in a new codebase, but then actually leads me astray once I am familiar with the project.
If you are unfamiliar with the project, how do you determine that it wasn't leading you astray in the first place? Do you ever revisit what you had done with AI previously to make sure that, once you know your way around, it was doing it the right way?
