> Reporting bugs, patching systems, updating software is common to most software.

Yes, but this is a side-effect of trying to do good work and writing code that is understood and works.

When you ship sloppy, AI generated code, that no humans at the company have read and understood, you're missing the main part about engineering and are skipping straight to the life-support stage of the software, and you treat the (previously) side effect as your main job. Reporting bugs and shipping patches becomes your job, instead of engineering software, which happens to also come with that task.
