If that is the case market forces would likely favor hand written code and all the slop will be forgotten (unless the slop works fine and is stable).

The market is hardly as rational as people would like to hope it is, though it does at least have its own twisted sort of internal consistency.

I don't think that's how money works. Enough people have poured enough money into this thing that the actual, measurable results/efficacy/ROI are of secondary importance (to put it mildly). At this point AI adoption is (at least sold as) a fait accompli.

This is wishful thinking. The force of the market is "number go up". Quality increasingly has less and less of a role in the equation. You will eat your slop, and you will like it. It will be the only choice you have.
