No, I was not aware. Nothing comes close to the scale of 'coherent looking' code generation of today's tech.

Even if you employ 100K people and ask them to write proper if/else code non-stop, LLM can still outcompete them by a huge margin with much better looking code.

(don't compare it LLM output to codegen of the past, because codegen was carefully crafted and a lot of times were deterministic, I am only talking about people writing code vs LLMs writing code)

I’m not a bot.

Are you talking about “I’m overwhelmed by code review” or “we can now produce code at a scale no amount of humans can ever review”. Those are 2 very different things.

You review code because you’re responsible for it. This problem existed pre AI and nothing had changed wrt to being overwhelmed. The solution is still the same. To the latter, I think that’s more the software dark factory kind of thinking?

I find that interesting and maybe we’ll get there. But again, the code it takes to verify a system is drastically more complex than the system itself. I don’t know how you could build such a thing except in narrow use cases. Which I do think well see one day, though how narrow they are is the key part.
