I'm of the opinion if people can tell you are using an LLM you are using it wrong. Its still expected that you fully understand any patch you submit. I think if you use an LLM to help you nobody would complain or really notice, but if you blindly submit an LLM authored patch without understanding how it works people will get frustrated with you very quickly.
