It writes more informative commits than I could ever make so I'm just reading what it says and mostly copy/pasting completely most of the time, I write all of the changes I've made into an LLM with a large context window and it write a very detailed commit not just with a title but with bullet points describing each of the changes precisely

Yeah, good commit messages are about intent and context of a change - not what the change itself is. We can look at the diff for that. Just write a single line or two summarizing what the commit does, and everything else should be adding context on top that doesn't directly exist in the codebase.
