How to make the year auto-update each new year on copyright

Hi there is there a code like [the-year], or something like that, that I can use to make the copyright year auto-update each new year?

Thanks,
Chris

Perhaps this method is obsolete, because: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/current-year/

I use this on my site http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-add-a-dynamic-copyright-date-in-wordpress-footer/
