There are lots of great C programmers. Unfortunately, someone using Cursor) is more likely to show their projects off, and it doesn't help that AI projs are considered "better," even to devs.
When I see an AI-generated README, I'm just disappointed. U could argue only the README was written by AI, but in most cases all is code is as well. How can AI know features, usage, etc. ab the proj if it didn't write the code?
There's also the fact that flashy beginner projs (that are also coded by AI) get more traction here, as long as ppl don't know that AI coded it. Like OpenGL 3D simulations, or anything w/ a "web-looking" UI (not saying these types of projs means AI, but a lot of the AI projs here are of this type).
Most text editors I see here limit the max # of lines to 512 or 1024. Literally no human does this, AI seems to think RAM is 1980's level. I'm not sure why AI loves nonsensical 2^n macros.
The Internet has been dead, and will continue to be. AI slop is everywhere, and approaching LinkedIn levels.
NOTE that I don't believe there's anything wrong with using AI. Personally, I'm just tired of seeing it.
