Bringing things back to your main point, that's also my fear about AI "coding". Is it possible to use ML to construct efficient, well structured, safe code? Possibly, yes. Could it be done before the heat death of the universe? Maybe.
Would I still trust it without review and rigorous, adversarial testing? Hell no. AI doesn't get special treatment.
@jrconlin but, who is there to review the code, when no one understands?
This brings to mind a job ad that popped up while I read online newspaper, I guess it deemed it relevant for me as it was a IT "developer" job. The ad was for a "no code / low code" position, where "ChatGPT and similar tools" would be use to write "software without the need to write code"
The job ad specified that since you did not actually write code, you did not really need to be a coder.
I am not actually sure WHAT they wanted people to know.
Surely, this was some crap popup company that would go away in no time.
No.
IT WAS THE TAX AUTHORITIES!
I did not have time to find a void to scream into, there was no time.
Am I concerned? Am I scared? YES.
But there is also the off chance that I will not need to pay taxes next year because no one knows anything about what anyone owes and it is years until it is repaired, so who knows, it might work out ok.
(no, seriously, I enjoy public health care)
