The issue with AI is, it generates what it is trained on. Most publicly available coding contents/examples are just docs or blogspam(geeksforgeeks/javapoint/whatever) where mostly surface level code is mostly peddled. Even, many OSS(small scale) do not have best practices or good code base, just enough to get whatever is needed to be done. Now when you train AI on such data, it’ll excel reproducing(statistically) the same thread of code.
Once the quality of training data improves(somehow getting access to high quality codebase behind corporate walls by promoting these assistants and ingesting the codebase), the output improves.
