Comment on AI-generated code contains more bugs and errors than human output

I’d never ask a friggin machine to do coding for me, that’s MY blast.
That said, I’ve had good luck asking GPT specific questions about multiple features of Javascript, and of various browsers. It’ll often feed me a sample script using a feature it explains … a lot more helpful than many of the wordy websites like MDN.

Humans are bad at code. AI is trained on humans. AI is bad because we are bad.

Ai is literally just copy pasting. Like if you think about AI as a control C control V machine, it makes sense. You wouldn’t trust a single fucking junior Dev that didn’t actually know what a code but just Ctrl C control V from stack overflow for literally every single line of code. That’s all fucking AI is

I’ve been using it to code a microservice as PoC for semantic search. As I’ve basically never coded Python (mainly PHP, but can do many langs) I’ve had to rely on AI (Kimi K2, or agentic Claude I think 4.5 or 4, can’t remember) because I don’t know the syntax, features, best practices, and tools to use for formatting, static analysis, and type checks.
Mind you, I’ve basically never coded in Python besides some shit in uni, which was 5-10 years ago. AI was a big help - albeit it didn’t spit out fully working code, I have enough knowledge in this field to fix the issues. As I learn mainly by practice and not theory, AI is great because - same as many YouTubers and free tutorials - it spits out unoptimized and broken code.
I am usually not using it for my main line of work (PHP) besides some boiler plate (take this class, make a test, make it look the same as this other test = 300 lines I don’t have to write myself).
