Compilers are deterministic and they actually possess domain knowledge of what they are trying to do. AI models are non-deterministic, have no real domain knowledge due to lack of an underlying world model, and their way of "writing" software is to spew out something that looks like something that they have been trained on, then iterate on it long enough until it has reached the level of being barely runnable.
good, "this underscore user". stay in that lane.

AI is absolutely deterministic, just as much as a a car is, with a human driver (who is also soon going to be replaced with AI anyway) .. I ship more, fix more bugs, audit my code for security more and thoroughly enjoy not just the process of building, but also the asymmetric power i wield by out executing my well funded competitors with 100 developers and 10 testers dnd 5 devops and 10 full time sales staff.
