The project owner is talking about LLVM,a compiler toolkit, not an LLM.

It's actually quite easy to spot if LLMs were used or not.

Very few total number of commits, AI like documentation and code comments.

But even if LLMs were used, the overall project does feel steered by a human, given some decisions like not using bloated build systems. If this actually works then that's great.
