An AI language model does not inherently improve code quality; instead, it amplifies the existing state of the codebase. If the input code is well-written and clean, the LLM will maintain that quality. Conversely, if the code contains errors or is poorly structured, the LLM will likely perpetuate and even worsen these issues. Therefore, the responsibility for providing high-quality input code remains with the human developer. AI
