    Human bugs tend to follow patterns, quite consistent ones for the same person.

    Further when searching for bugs code done by the same person is quite consistent so somebody else looking through it will figure out the pattern an much more easily navigate it.

    Last but not least, the human actually learns and will stop making certain kinds of bugs, especially if they’re the one having to find them out and fix them.

    AI bugs don’t follow patterns, the code isn’t consistent across the code base and it can’t learn.

    I get the impression that this Lutris Dev isn’t even at the expertise level of Senior Developer.

    PS: Oh, I forgot what’s maybe the most important thing - humans try a lot harder to avoid making bugs which can cause huge problems or at least will put measures in place to avoid huge consequences if such a bug exists (the probability distribution on the severity space for bugs made by humans is not uniform but rather weighed towards bugs with fewer consequences), whilst AIs do not, being just as likely create bugs with massive impact as cosmetic ones and not really creating “just in case” checks to catch the nastier bugs.
