…and you feel that AI is too stupid to understand your code and can barely make a change in your code without breaking it – then it is likely you’re an utter piece of shit software engineer who writes unreadable, unmaintainable, and tightly coupled brittle code with no proper unit testing.

First, do something that impresses yourself

Mistakes are key to escaping the local minima of known art, and is an essential component of true creativity. A perfect machine that can’t make mistakes against it’s own established knowledge can’t create. General intelligence therefore must be imperfect, and be allowed to make mistakes.
Programs are instructions for computers
Processes are instructions for humans
A software engineer is good in the former, but an engineer is good in both
