It's more subtle than that. When refactoring code, it constantly compliments you on how smart you are that you caught its mistake.
It deliberately creates an overinflated sense of self. Then you go and mistreat everyone around you. Next thing you know, you're in a padded cell with a shaved head and a ball-gag.
That's the coding 'assistant' end-game.
