What? So much research is being generated around this topic. Perhaps you are just unfamiliar with it.

Technology has been augmenting or replacing human work for as long as the first slab of rock was shoved up an inclined plane (wedge) and popped into its spot in the Great Pyramid.

Nobody's crowing about the verbosity of their AI-generated code. Rather, it seems to me they're impressed by the functionality or capabilities relative to time/cost.

Until AI has control over its inputs (including physical inputs - compute hardware, etc.) it's not quite RSI. We'll get there. They'll get there, rather.

Should we expand our universe of possibilities to admit that there might be AI that is generally intelligent, but which has some very un-human characteristics?
