I don't think anyone would say that the LLMs will produce better code, but they can do it much faster.

I personally did not hit the wall where the use of LLMs would slow me down in the long run.

It has been smooth sailing most of the time, and getting better with newer models.

For me it comes down to "know what you are being paid for".

I'm not a library maintainer. My code will not be scrutinized by thousands of peers. My customer will be happy with faster completion that does the same thing like the more perfect hand crafted version.

Welcome to the industrial revolution in programming. This is the way of things.
