The engineers running the AI have to still be good.

AI code that isn't properly guided and controlled by an engineer is just as sloppy as the human behind it.

AI is an accelerate for programming, but some developers create horrible code before AI, snd AI won't change that. It just lets them do it faster.

I agree, but given the breadth of slop we are seeing now, I think it's safe to say the average AI-accelerated developer are bad coders.

That being said, no one ever looked at good code and said "that's AI gold," so opinions may be skewed.
