Current AI coding is certainly very lacking in the craftsmanship department. But it is not obvious to me that that will always be the case. I don't think there's some fundamental reason AI could never produce code that matches or exceeds the craftsmanship of human experts.

The fact that LLMs fundamentally do not, and cannot, have understanding or reasoning. I don't think you can produce craftsmanship through sheer volume of throwing stuff at the wall and seeing what sticks.
