AI is a horrible tool in software development.

A team leader explains the problems in this post on Reddit:

"AI Slop PR's are burning me and my team out hard"

I personally haven't experienced this a lot but it sounds like something you just have to correct Junior devs not to do. And it will take time. Don't let a junior dev get away with pushing code they don't understand.

If senior devs did this, I'd be very irritated and I'd have a serious conversation with them about it.

@ryanjyoder @Lucomo this very much sounds like a "you're holding it wrong" argument.

The fact that these tools do allow junior devs to submit wild & ungrounded PRs is itself a major, major problem.

@jaredwhite @ryanjyoder @Lucomo I don't think this is a junior dev using AI to generate PRs, I think this is one of the places where they've allowed the AI to submit bug reports and PRs directly.

Ah. Oof. That's quite different.
