AI is the average of all programmers.

It's just that many (I guess that includes me? :D) assumed that they are better than the actually were.

A team of programmers is "worse" than their best member. Worse quality of code, worse thinking. You can usually get more done with a lot of mediocre hours of work than a few brilliant hours, though.

AI I've used isn't a better coder than I am - it's just got a lot more hours in an hour than I do.
