It writes more informative commits than I could ever make so I'm just reading what it says and mostly copy/pasting completely most of the time, I write all of the changes I've made into an LLM with a large context window and it write a very detailed commit not just with a title but with bullet points describing each of the changes precisely

I think a lot of people in this thread are just upset/projecting because this is the first real hint that they're not as much of a special-boy-programmer as they think. OP's use case is fairly limited in scope, using the LLM for something it is actually pretty good for, and never implied he doesn't check the output. They'll never admit it, and will deflect, but they're just worried.
