You're right, they SHOULD be fired.
Management loves that they are using AI, they will probably get promoted if anything.
It's being pushed very hard by management where I work and I'm consistently seeing the same as above. I mentioned on another thread recently that I've heard "I don't know why Claude did that" multiple times over the past few weeks.
It's infuriating.
The number of times I've been debugging something and a coworker messages "I asked ChatGPT and it said [obviously wrong thing]" makes me want to gouge my eyes out
Look for another work place as soon as you can. If not you will forever be in the position of being the cleaner of their shit and you will not gain anything by it. They will get their metrics going up and you will be known to be the slow guy because you care about fixing the code.
A scapegoat to shove that little responsibility (golden parachute) they get paid for so much on.
