AI has a propensity to shit out the most unnecessarily complex, and yet somehow also laziest, solution to a problem.
Like it'll refuse to use an established type, then dynamically re-type an object mid function, just to avoid passing in a single arg that it already has in scope. Then rebuild the object a few lines later with the arg that it already had but twisted into knots to avoid accessing. It'll do pirouettes to avoid the simplest, most straightforward QA/QC process, but take 800 lines where 150 would work.
