When I was first learning Perl after being a shell scripter/sysadmin I produced a lot of code. 2-3 years later the same tasks would be way less code. So is more code good? Also, my anecdotal experience is that LLM code is flat wrong sometimes. Like a significant percentage. I can't quote a number really, because I rarely do the same thing/similar thing twice. But it's a double digit percentage.
