I agree, but also I do find that AI’s broken code is generally waaay less annoying to pick apart than my colleagues’ code. I’m not sure exactly why. Probably partly because it’s better at commenting code and naming variables so it’s easier to follow?
I think also partly it’s because reviewing other people’s code is usually done during code review, where you can’t just directly edit the code to fix it - you have to start a conversation convincing them to do it differently. That’s quite annoying and doesn’t happen with AI generated code.
I’m not a programmer so i don’t know if this makes sense, but I wonder if it’s easier to retool ai code because ai code is janky in a similar-ish way most of the time, while human code is janky in different ways all the time? Whadda ya think?
What are the results if you take code written by one brand of ai and then have another brand of ai review it? Like use chatgpt to write code, and then ask copilot if the generated code has any errors and will work as intended?

I disagree with the premise.
AI is good at making things that LOOK right. Pictures. Words. Whatever. Actually makes errors harder to find IMO.
I still don’t understand why we’re using humans to review AI code. Shouldn’t AIs be reviewing the code?
We’re letting AIs do the fun part (coding) and forcing humans to review (the worst part) reams more janky code.
AI’s aren’t smart enough yet. But plenty of people are also using them to review code.

I don’t know, if I put my hand in a fan and then put that mutilated hand into another brand of fan, do you think that might fix it?
