It occurs to me this pattern might be the average code we humans have produced. We all have made those quick fixes, copy-pastas, and dirty hacks... they learned it somewhere! I also assume that some of the behavior is an artifact of their training regime.

So with LLM outputting average code, and people using LLM more and more, I guess the average code will become worse over time ?

		Not advocating for AI code slop--but if AI coded software works correctly, maybe it doesn't matter? Except sometimes when a specialist will have to get involved. Not a perfect analogy, but most people don't write assembly these days--they have a compiler do that. Assembly still has a place, but it's a specialist task.
