Ironically, the opposite is the case with LLMs. Now those on your teams that wanted to stop the clownery will be overruled by the vast amount of bullshit code from their less skilled peers. Of course, those that care can use LLMs to faster clean up, but there's no way they are able to keep up.

Managers always favored outcome over correctness, and not giving two shits about the internals was, and will always be, incentivized.
