I'm not sure, I'm hearing developers I know are sloppy and produce shit code both having no luck with LLMs, and some of them having lots of luck with them.
On the other side, those who really think about the design/architecture and are very strict (which is the group I'd probably put myself into, but who wouldn't?) are split in a similar way.
I don't have any concrete proof, but I'm guessing "expectations + workflow" differences would explain the vast difference in perception of usefulness.
