https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_programming It's an acknowledged term in computer science, describing any mechanism whatsoever of auto-generating code from a description at a higher level of abstraction. Of course LLM's are highly unusual in being non-deterministic and having a surprisingly broad scope, but this does not make the term inapplicable.
