I don't think this is the whole picture. AI-generated code is harder to maintain because the creator may not understand how/why it works, and AI is are notoriously bad at debugging it's own code. Using a lot of AI generated code often counterintuitively slows down the overall development process
It's the job of the people maintaining the project to review changes they merge in and to understand them. When people make PRs to my projects, I don't just trust them blindly.
