Exactly. Enthusiastic, but in need of constant direction and guidance.

A big advantage over actual teenagers is they won't get pissy if you tell them to start over and do it all from the top. Which is an important thing to do. Trying again fresh, or pitching the question at a different LLM is a good sanity check when you can't personally verify something that sounds plausible. If it's a hallucination, it will be different each time.
