This is where commit based version control can help mitigate the damage or detect it early. The golden rule in AI assistance in programming (if you're going to use it) is to check the changes to make sure you understand everything before you commit it.

LLMs don't work if you don't put the effort in. They save time when you do.
Or use markdown, LaTeX, typst. No reason to use word docs anymore imo
