Lol I'd bet 90% of that is of equal quality to the code you get by measuring lines written.
Another 9% is likely stolen.
The final 1% won't even compile, doesn't work right, or needs so much work you'd be better off redoing it.
The only useful result I've had with CS is asking for VERY basic programs that I have to then check the quality of. Besides that, I had ONE question that I knew would be answered in a text book somewhere, but couldn't get a search hit about. (I think it was something about the most efficient way to insert or sort or something like that.)
Worked with it a bit at work and the output was so unreliable I gave up and took the best result it gave me and hard coded it so I could have something to show off. Left it as a "in the future..." thing and last I heard its still spinning in the weeds.
I often help beginners with their school programming assignments. They're often dumbfounded when I tell them "AI" is useless because they "asked it to implement quicksort and it worked perfectly".
The next batch of software engineers are going to have huge dependency problems.
