There was plenty of bad code long before LLMs came around. Let’s be real.
Being hand written is no guarantee of high quality, just like using LLMs is no guarantee of low quality.

Using LLMs is not a guarantee of low quality, but it does make low quality vastly more likely.
Eh, not really. It just lowers the barrier for lazy people who never would have tried contributing before.
I’ve read a lot of code hand-written by programmers. By smart and hard working people. And I know from experience that the code the average programmer writes is not great either.
