Yeah also noticing similar bullshit. People send me exact steps on what to do written by ChatGPT that understands exactly nothing about the context and is therefore often wrong or a half truth at best.
Another client has pushed a single commit to a messy project that added 70k lines and a load of new features. The project is now unmaintainable.
I'm just glad people will write off my terrible code as AI.
Instructions are sloppy, code can be sloppy, but what I find is: when they review code changes they find real stuff. Not all the real stuff, but more real stuff than human reviewers typically find. A code review doesn't need to be perfect, not even 100% correct, it just needs to show you stuff that you look at and think "damn, good to catch this now instead of in a field problem report a year from now..."
