It seems like the AI never gets tired of writing code

I think that's a telling observation. The whole reason we have software, and programming languages, is that people get tired.

Necessity has invented generally and reuse to combat repetition. With agents that don't tire, they don't gravitate to generally — but their endless repetition does tire their human reverse-centaur bodies dealing with the code review and maintainability they can't reason about.

That's the scary thing. It can easily create more code than it can understand, and do it faster than human understanding can keep up with.
