In order to use a library, I need to (this is my opinion) be able to reason about the library’s behavior, based on a specification of its interface contract. The LLM may help with coming up with suitable code, but verifying that the application logic is correct with respect to the library’s documented interface contract is still necessary. It’s therefore still a requirement to read and understand the library’s documentation. For example, for the case of a REST client, you need to understand how the possible failure modes of the HTTP protocol and REST API are translated by the library.
