Of course you take longer to do stuff when using LLMs:
-usual way to work on something: you just work directly on the thing yourself, looking precisely for resources to help you by yourself when you need them
-LLM way to work on something: you have to spend time to correctly formulate your request, multiple times because each lacks a bit of what you want, then you spend time to read the answer, and then you again spend time to try it, correct it, and do all of that in loop because there's something wrong every time which means you're repeating the process. Oh, and I forgot the waiting times because you've used the entirety of free plan.
