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.
I use LLMs for C code - most often when I know full well how to code something but I don’t want to spent half a day expressing it and debugging it.
ChatGPT or Copilot will spit out a function or snippet that’s usually pretty close to what I want. I patch it up and move on to the tougher problems LLMs can’t do.
That’s why I said ‘for snippets yes’. But I guess you needed some attention so piggybacked. Welcome to my blocklist.
Fitting username.
