- AI-generated code can look plausible but fail in global system constraints.
- Example: Slack API rate limit issue caused by AI-generated cleanup job.
- Initial AI solution broke the app by hitting global rate limits.
- AI's fix attempt worsened the problem by using blocking sleep.
- Human intervention required to properly address rate limiting.
- Final solution involved cron jobs, settings, and gradual DM closing.
- Human oversight remains critical for AI-generated code.
