There was nothing wrong with the code in terms of structure or performance, but it was doing this really weird operation with an ID after DB insert

So there was plenty wrong with the code.

And it hasn’t been fixed.

“Bro, its totally just you prompted it wrong”

Good engineers will produce more good code, because they ask the right questions, know what good looks like and check the output.

So what’s the point then ?

There have been coding frameworks like game engines for decades, if system coding is beyond your ability.

If AI can’t write usable code from the start its worthless.

Well there you are it really is as crap as they promised.

That build quality would embarrass an Indian auto worker.
