This sounds like such a fucking nightmare. I got into software because I like writing code. Their job is now the equivalent of a full time PR reviewer.
PR reviewer but the dev was drunk, sometimes is a genius, sometimes is eating sand, doesn't follow guidelines, likes to duplicate code, and forgets what was in the original task description after a while.
And even if you babysit it and carefully tell it all the mistakes, it will learn nothing and suggest the same stupid mistakes next tim. I did actually know a human just like AI and he kept his job for years before quitting to grift another company because management refused to believe he sucked. So I'm not optimistic about AI screwing up discouraging business leaders.
