Why do people keep saying LLMs work well with high level scripting languages?

I've never had a good result. Just tons of silent bugs that are obvious those experienced with Python, JS/TS, etc. and subtle to everyone else.

Perhaps they are being more successful in their use of llm's than you are?

Yes "success" as they understand it, and they are always so smug while refusing to show or even discuss the code the LLM produced.

A poor craftsman may blame his tools, but some tools really are the wrong ones for the job.

I keep having this nagging suspicion that the biggest AI boosters just aren’t very good programmers. Maybe they cannot see all the subtle bugs. I’m not an amazing coder but I frequently have “wait, stop!” moments when generating code with an LLM.
