But good code isn't just "does it work", it's also

- is it understandable

- is it maintainable

- how much work is adding new features

- is it written in a way that adding new features means rewriting a lot of it

- is it written in a consistent style

- and lots of other things

I use AI to write a lot of my code, but the only time it's clearly "better" than a competent human is for one-off things.

That being said - AI + human is, without any doubt in my mind, better than either one alone.
