It often can do it better if you prod it though. Its just so weird that its really hard to get it to do that. It knows how even if it is trained on poor over complicated stuff.

    How much time does that prodding take vs how long would it take you to just write the (better) code yourself?

    Its usually just 1 or 2 messages saying i dont like this so its only the time it takes to read it and say try again. A minute or two?

    Its faster to just ask to do it again in most cases.

    The times itd probably be quicker to do it on my own are the more complicated ones where it gets something wrong but it wasnt so blatantly obviously bad that I just tell it to try again, so I spend time with the wrong stuff, see its wrong with a little work, then toss it and try again, or re work it myself from that.
