Trying to do things off the beaten path with LLMs is rarely successful, especially if there's a related much more popular option.

I'm convinced that programmers' bias towards LLMs is strongly correlated with the weirdness of their work. Very often my strange ideas pushed to LLMs look like solutions but are rather broken and hallucinated attempts which only vaguely represent what needs to be done.

This is an extremely astute observation; my work has always been somewhat weird and I've never found LLMs to be more then an interesting party-trick
