You had to lean on that assumption that there's a massive amount being produced to make this point though.
The actual operating point is that the slop is made faster than humans can WRITE it.
Reviewing 100 lines of code thats 90% there and took 3 minutes to produce is faster than writing it from scratch, there's no getting around that.
For me the issue with it is that all (hyperbole) work is about to become reading instead of creating, dull.
You might save time in writing the code, but you lose time from the code doing things that aren't in your mental model of the program
