alt Hacker NewsMy experience is the opposite: AI takes too many edge cases into account and guard against even the most unlikely thing. The upside is that it often handles edge cases that I either didn't think about or was too lazy to implement.
I can with full confidence say that the code AI writes is more robust and safe than if I would have done it myself. The code definitely becomes more bloated though.
My experience has been that it wraps all the obvious things, and even some obscure things, in error handling. In this sense it is safer.
It also fails to write abstractions unless they're carbon copies of a well established pattern, and when abstractions already exist, it needs babysitting to ensure it will use them appropriately. It won't introspect about its current direction unless forced to by the user or by an error, and when forced it will happily "fix" non-issues just because you pointed them out, since it's a happy little yes-man.
Because of this, code written by a good engineer is more likely to start out broken but converges towards correctness as more abstractions get built, while code written by AI duplicates abstraction layers, leaks between them, and never converges towards anything.
