> LLMs _can_ reliably generate (relatively small amounts of) working code from relatively terse descriptions. Code is the detail being filled in.
They can generate boilerplate, sure. Or they can expand out a known/named algorithm implementation, like pulling in a library. But neither of those is generating detail that wasn't there in the original (at most it pulls in the detail from somewhere in the training set).
