I once had a PR. I told the dev that "LLM is ok but you own the code"

He told me "I spent n days to architect the solution"

He shows me claude generated system design .. and then i say ok, I went to review the code. 1hr later i asked why did you repeat the code all over at the end. Dude replies "junk the entire PR it's AI generated"

Has anyone who's familiar with compiler source code tried to compare it to other compilers? Given that LLMs have been trained on data sets that include the source code for numerous C compilers, is this just (say) pcc extruded in Rust form?
