My experience with generating code with AI is very limited across a limited set of programming languages but whenever it has produced low quality code, it has been able to better itself with further instructions. Like "oh no, that is not the right naming convention. Please use instead" or "the choice of design pattern here is not great because ${reasons}. Produce 2 alternative solutions using x or y" and in nearly every case it produces satisfactory results.

Has this also been your experience?

Kinda, yes, my experience has also been that it takes too long in that way though. I've been using AI for different tasks than something that requires high quality code
