Are LLMs capable of writing *good* code?

By “good” I mean code that is written professionally and concisely (and obviously works as intended). Apart from personal interest and understanding what the machine spits out, is there any legit reason anyone should learn advanced coding techniques? Specifically in an engineering perspective?

If not, learning how to write code seems a tad trivial now.

Yes … and it doesn’t know when it is on time.
Also, machines are getting better and they can help us with inspiration.

In my experience, not at all. But sometimes they help with creativity when you hit a wall or challenge you can’t resolve.

They have been trained off internet examples where everyone has a different style/method of coding, like writing style. It’s all very messy and very unreliable. It will be years for LLMs to code “good” and will require a lot of training that isn’t scraping.
