Oddly enough, my grasp of coding is probably the same as the guy in the middle but I still know that LLM generated code is garbage.

    Yeah, I actually considered putting the same text on all 3, but we gotta put the idiots that think it's great somewhere! Maybe I should have put it with the dumbest guy instead.

    That's kinda wrong though. I've seen llm's write pretty good code, in some cases even doing something clever I hadn't thought of.

    You should treat it as any junior though, and read the code changes and give feedback if needed.
