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?
I disagree with the premise.
AI is good at making things that LOOK right. Pictures. Words. Whatever. Actually makes errors harder to find IMO.
Yeah definitely could be. I also think when AI gets things wrong it gets it so obviously wrong you have to delete it and do it yourself (and not worry about offending someone). It rarely seems to make the same kinds of trivial mistakes humans do (like copy/paste errors for example). It either does a pretty decent job that's easy to fix up, or it totally fails and you do it yourself.
