I find a lot of the AI code hate coming from people who apparently have never managed software production by less-than-perfect programmers. If you handle AI code like it's coming from a team of consultants on a revolving-door staffing arrangement, it's about like that. Ideal? No. If you hire 9 women can you get them to have your baby within one month? No. But if you are handed 10 programmers who know almost nothing about your specific project, you generally can get them to produce useable code at about the rate of 3 programmers who are familiar with the project - iff you're disciplined about everything they do.
