It sounds like it does save you a lot of time then. I haven't had the same experience, but I did all my learning to program before LLMs.
Personally I think the amount of power saved here is negligible, but it would actually be an interesting study to see just how much it is. It may or may not offset the power usage of the LLM, depending on how many questions you end up asking and such.
It doesn't always get the answers right, and I have to re-feed its broken instructions back into itself to get the right scripts, but for someone with no official coding training, this saves me so much damn time.
Consider I'm juggling learning Linux starting from 4 years ago, along with python, rust, nixos, bash scripts, yaml scripts, etc.
It's a LOT.
For what it's worth, I dont just take the scripts and paste them in, I'm always trying to understand what the code does, so I can be less reliant as time goes on.
