Frontier LLMs write better code at CRUD tasks than 95% of developers today. They’ll get to 95% of most niche coding domains by December and likely all coding tasks sometime next year; 99% better at all tasks by December 2028.

You may be correct now and it doesn’t matter one bit.

You are cooked if you think the end goal was the quality of the code and not the quality of the product.

What is "better code"?

I think there are far more people who can't write better code than an LLM. Of course, there are a few exceptions, but it's a fact that LLMs are already handling PhD-level mathematics and papers.

I also think I write better code than an LLM in certain areas, but in most programming domains, the LLM knows more than I do across many dimensions. As prompts get deeper, LLMs are already producing PhD-level code—and that's been shown in research. The vast majority of people don't have that level of education. Of course, having a PhD doesn't guarantee good coding, but at least it's clear that LLMs can handle that level of capability.

People might disagree, but my view is firm on this.
