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.

For basic boiler plate like routes for an API, an etl script from sample data to DB tables, or other similar basics, yeah, it’s perfectly acceptable. You’ll need to swap out dummy addresses, and maybe change a choice or two, but it’s fine.

But when you’re trying to organize more complicated business logic or debug complicated dependencies it falls over
