You don’t have to memorize. Next time, you can just recall the commands by looking at manpages or this blog post again. You will already retain most concepts.
ChatGPT is cool, but it is wrong often enough that makes hard to trust. I don’t want to be running the wrong command and suffering its consequences. I only resort to chatGPT when docs and web search do not give me an answer quickly. Even then, I try to verify chatGPT with docs before going forward.
I mean, we’re talking curl here, I don’t think a lot of suffering of consequences is happening. And man pages are often also not a great resource, throw everything at you, often don’t contain examples.
If I’m building an app that integrates curl or libcurl, oh yes I’m reading the doc. If I just need curl to do something quickly, the LLM output is perfectly fine.
I think you’re right, it is harmless for the most part. But one time I unintentionally overwrote a file using curl. It is definitely my own stupidity here though.

I’d be scared to perform POST/PUT with LLM-generated commands. For immutable calls I agree though
