I primarily use GPT style tools like ChatGPT and whatnot.

The key is, rather than asking it to generate code, specify that you dont want code and instead want it to help you work through the solution. Tell it to ask you meaningful questions about your problem and effectively act as a rubber duck

Then, after you've chosen a solution with it, ask it to generate code based on all the above convo.

This will typically produce way higher quality results and helps avoid potential X/Y problems.
