Is there a telltale signature of AI-written code?

Original: People like to complain about AI code. But what really sets it apart? Is there a common signature that separates AI code

Debate is under way among developers over whether AI-generated code has a recognizable signature that separates it from human-written code. While complaints about AI code quality are common, programmers are now discussing what stylistic or structural patterns, if any, actually distinguish it. The conversation frames the question as a testable hypothesis, reflecting wider concerns in the software community about code quality, review practices and how to handle the growing volume of machine-assisted development work.

Why now: Developers are actively debating how to identify and evaluate AI-generated code as its use spreads.
