I can believe that 30% figure.  It just explains so much. :)

As someone who observed the inside workings of MS for 10 years in the
early 2000s, most people have no idea what goes on inside MS.  They
don't understand that the things they don't like about MS software
aren't the fault of the engineers, but instead are the fault of
"program managers" and the career ladder inside MS.

Nobody should expect AI to create "correct" code, whatever that means.

From the way you're talking it sounds like you haven't actually tried
any of these assistants.  It doesn't work the way you think it does.
