No, I don't think a human is intelligent enough for that. Based on my limited experience with people trying to learn how to use tools I'm the upstream for I fully expect that human to go to -mentors and ask why the tool or option proposed by the LLM doesn't exist (without mentioning where do they get that) or even why does the d/control they wrote results in a dpkg-source error about a not recognized field. It's possible that probability of doing this is lower for people learning packaging than for people learning a tool/langauge/framework in general, but remember that a noticeable share of people learning packaging is people who want to package their pet project. -- WBR, wRAR
