I have had personal experience with this. And seen others telling me as well. These AI things often suggest wrong code, or even with bugs. If you begin your work by assuming AI is suggesting the correct code you can go hours, to even days debugging things in the wrong place. Secondly when you do arrive at a place where you find the bug in the AI generated code, it can't seem to fix or even modify it, because it misses context in which the which itself generated at the first place. Thirdly the AI itself can interpret your questions in a way you didn't mean.
As of now AI generated code is not for serious work of any kind.
My guess a whole new paradigm of programming is needed, where you will more or less talk to AI in a programming language itself, some what like lisp. I mean a proper programming language at a very abstract level, which can be interpreted in only one possible meaning, and hence not subject to interpretation.

Code generation is quite old though, and also quite common, also outside the Lisp-family. When doing non-trivial systems development in Java you tend to use it a lot, especially with XML as an intermediary, abstracted language.
