You most definitely did contradict yourself. First you said you don't prove anything about the code you write, then you said you do. But that's fine. We can agree to disagree.
And I have not made any statements about how you use LLMs, only about how the LLMs produce code. All statements about how you use LLMs have been made by you, not me. I haven't discussed it since it is not related to the arguments, which are: 1) whether LLMs are goal-oriented and 2) whether humans and LLMs both merely maximize plausibility when writing/generating code.
Both claims that you made. Note, however, that if you are correct in your own points, then you should indeed be able to "just dump out code without any process in between". So if anyone is claiming this, it's you.
