Have you... actually... tried a frontier model?
Because the "slop era" of AI-generated code is over. It ended in September. AI-generated code is now better than what the vast majority of practicing software engineers can produce. And AIs can more thoroughly test and verify the code too, both with programmatically automated unit and integration tests and with "manual" testing by the LLM itself.
If you are not letting LLMs write the code, then your code is not up to professional standard. This is the new reality now.
