Agree completely! The people saying “LLMs don’t produce good code” are using prompts like “build a feature that does X, Y and Z”
Good prompting with current-quality LLMs needs to look like “create a function that take in params A and B and produces an output of C”
It’s still faster than hand writing the code since the agent will refactor as it goes and break things down into manageable, small functions, but you have to tell it to do that.
