You are cooked if you can’t actually write better code than llm. Try reading some books or documentation

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.
