I think there is a sweet spot where if you're junior on the cusp of intermediate it can help you because you know enough to reject the nonsense, but it can point you in the right direction. Similar to if you need to implement a small feature in a language you don't know, but basically know what needs to get done.
I've definitely seen juniors just keep refining the garbage until it manages to pass a build and then try to merge it, though, and using it that way just sort of makes you a worse programmer because you don't learn anything and it just makes you more dependent on the bot. Companies without good code reviews are just going to pile this garbage on top of garbage.
