> Hearing people on tech twitter say that LLMs always produce better code than they do by hand was pretty enlightening for me.

That's hilarious LLM code is always very bad. It's only merit is it occasionally works.

> LLMs can produce better code for languages and domains I’m not proficient in.

I am sure that's not true.

I think it says more about who's still on tech twitter vs. anything about the llm....

It seems true by construction. If you're not proficient in a language than the bar for "better than you" is necessarily lower.
