Industrial-scale copy-pasta is definitely a concern I have around LLMs, though in practice I'm not sure it'll actually be _so_ much worse than it is now. Consider, for instance, one team that aims to have good test coverage and productive code reviews, and one that doesn't, and assume that on both teams there are some developers who carelessly copy-paste whatever the LLM spits out. I suspect that the first team will still end up doing pretty well, whereas the latter will get more terrible. So one outcome might be a greater delta between teams these two types of teams, with the takeaway being that in the new AI world, practices around code testing and reviewing are more important than ever.
