I treat the LLM like a weird kind of pair-programming partner: I fully expect to have to review everything it writes, and I often prompt it with that in mind - I'll tell it exactly what I want it to write, "write a function that takes X and Y and does Z and returns ..." kind of stuff.
I've spent so much time with them now that 90% of the time I get back exactly what I needed, because I can predict what prompt will get me the right result.
