If you think of AI like a compiler, yes we should throw away such tools because we expect correctness and deterministic outcomes

If you think of AI like a programmer, no we shouldn't throw away such tools because we accept them as imperfect and we still need to review.

This is a common argument but I don't think it holds up. A human learns. If one of my teammates or I make a mistake, when we realize it we learn not to make that mistake in the future. These AI tools don't do that. You could use a model for a year, and it'll be just as unreliable as it is today. The fact that they can't learn makes them a nonstarter compared to humans.
