Ask HN: How to deal with AI generated sloppy code

🧀

A discussion thread on Hacker News asks for ways to handle AI-generated sloppy code. Tech CEOs using AI tools like Cursor to write code lead to lengthy and error-prone structures that are hard to maintain. The sheer volume of generated code complicates debugging and creates more hidden errors, affecting the workflow of tech consultants trying to improve these systems.

  • AI tools generate verbose and tangled code.
  • Debugging AI-generated code is becoming more time-consuming.
  • The problem is similar to complications with Java's tooling.
  • AI coding tools can't replace the need for clear and concise manual code.
  • Human oversight is imperative in AI-generated code review.
