> why? does it matter? do you ask the same questions for people that don't use AI?

…yes? If someone dumps a PR on me without any rationale I definitely want to understand their thought process about how they landed on this solution!

why? the code output is the important thing, not how people get to it. you may need help understanding what the code does, or you may question why they didn't do it some other way you think is better, but if the code does what it's supposed to do, doesn't matter if the person dreamed about the solution, copy the answer from a google search or some AI did it.
