    AI writes unmaintainable code - you can see that many projects don't accept it.

      To be fair, so do humans.

        Yeah but in my experience AI boosts output of those humans 10x and only boosts output of programmers who do write maintainable code 50-100%.

          The issue I’ve observed is that good humans brainrot and let the AI do the thinking for them. Too many say LGTM and then push a PR.
