I can only think that you have been lucky with your career placements if you are making that statement.

What you are saying is leaning on 2 premises that seem to not hold water 1. Code written by people is always more readable and maintainable than LLM code 2. Code written by an LLM is always less readable and maintainable

Can you really make those statements in all intellectual honesty?
