AI-Written Code Is Only Better When a Skilled Programmer Is Holding the Wheel

Com I'm going to say something that will annoy people on both sides of the AI coding debate. AI-generated code is not good or bad by itself. It's a mirror. It reflects the skill level of the person using it and it does so at about three times the speed and ten times the volume. A skilled developer using AI writes better code faster. An inexperienced developer using AI writes worse code faster. The AI doesn't know the difference. It just outputs. I've been using local models in my daily workflow for months now such any in LLM Studio, Ollama and so on.
