developers are scrutinising AI-written code less than they would scrutinise their own code

Wait, is this how Those People claim that Copilot actually “improved their productivity”? They just don’t fucking read what the machine output?

I was always like “how can Copilot make me code faster if all it does is give me bad code to review which takes more than just writing it” and the answer is “what do you mean review”???

Yes, that’s exactly what it is. That and boilerplate, but it probably makes all kinds of errors that they don’t noticed, because the build didn’t fail.
