It's not about who wrote the code, rather who made decisions.

So we are calling the developers as sloppy now just because they use AI? It is entirely possible to use AI and still produce good code - the effort required changes, but so long as it is done by a diligent developer capable of asessing and correcting AI code, it should be fine.

That's my point, diligent use of AI is indistinguishable. And because of bad rep we will see any bad code called out "AI slop".

If you're doing that, you are producing slop. So it should be called out as slop.

I did not say I don't read any produced code; I said I don't write it manually. What I wanted to demystify is that you can generate everything with AI and still put a lot of work into design choices, good code structure, and so on, without producing any slop.

Please stop telling people what to do. Also, the discussion of the merits of LLM code writing is far from over. Author of TFA actually provided an interesting data point, you are just rehashing an often heard opinion.

Why are you so aggressive? I am not rehashing opinions, I'm writing my opinion. Also, I'm not even saying that the author did a bad article. So your comment is a bit out of line.
