"I've introduced students to Large Language Models (LLMs) in the context of programming simple scripts for Engineering Dynamics. It's not great in general for production code for a lot of reasons, but it's more approachable than google search for beginners trying to learn syntax."

"I've had students use it to help develop some pretty decent python scripts. Their correctness of course depends on the students still knowing what they're doing, but it helps overcome the large syntax barrier. For example, a student created a script which was almost correct! And the way it was wrong wasn't from blindly trusting LLM output code, but from not realizing they already had the quantity they needed. This particular code was for landing a plane on an aircraft carrier (using a very simple, non-aerodynamic model) and finding how much the chain slows it down."
