When I use AI to write code, after a week or 2, if I go back to the written code I have a hard time catching up. When I write code by myself I always just look at it and I understand what I did.

- jackdoe 8mo agoa program is function of the programmer, how you code is how you think. that is why it is really difficult, even after 60 years, for multiple people to work on the same codebase, over the years we have made all kinds of rules and processess so that code written by one person can be understood and changed by another. you can also read human code and empathise what were they thinking while writing it AI code is not for humans, it is just a stream of tokens that do something, you need to build skills to empirically verify that it does what you think it does, but it is pointless to "reason" about it.
