I really like the phrase "bad AI drivers"...AI is a tool, and the stupid drive-by pull requests just mean you're being inconsiderate and unhelpful in your usage of the tool, similar to how "bad drivers" are a nightmare to encounter on a highway...so stop it or you'll end up on the dashcam subreddit of programming.

The experience of using a coding agent is that you're more of a "backseat driver" though. The AI acts as your driver and you tell it where to go, sometimes making corrections if it's going the wrong way.

The experience is what you make of it. Personally I'm quite enjoying using AI as a way to generate code I can disagree with and refactor into what I want.

Sure, and I ask it to do the refactoring, too!
