This will then fold in on itself. The AI will start learning upon its own generated code, as there is no differentiator from what it wrote before. It has got a leg up from training on lots of human code, some brilliant written, some not, but eventually it will start dog fooding its own creations.

I am honestly pleased I am not using a Microsoft IDE and won't be part of all this crap. I have already started creating new projects on GitLab from now on.

AI may improve in many ways, but it will never reliably be able to infer what the user is wanting... because many users will not even be able to accurately define the problem.

It's a catch-22. If you can express accurately your need (the problem), then you're likely to be able to implement a solution to that need without an AI helper. In fact, you may find the AI helper to be a greater time cost than if you had just done it yourself. But if you are inexperienced such that you need the AI to help, then you probably aren't going to accurately expresss the need. And as such, you'll end up with "a solution", but perhaps to a problem that is different enough that there will be a net loss in time. Or worse, your AI "solution" ends up in production, and the damage comes later and at higher cost.
