It seems like bug hunting might be the one area where AI is actually making the world a better place.

99.9% of people complaining about AI making the world a worse place would be fully happy with AI if they shared in the economic benefits of automation.

Not if it ends up deskilling society and taking away what brings us meaning in life.

I don't see why AI would deskill what you love to do. People still do embroidery even though mass manufacturing exists. If you love something you would continue doing it irrespective of automation.

		Yes. I love eating pieces of string. I'm partial to wool myself, really filling.

I've been benefitting from automation my entire life. I don't see why anything would change when that automation is driven by language models.

How many were introduced by misuse of AI coding/vibe coding though?

highly unlikely for many of them. SharePoint, bitlocker, Active directory, hyper-v, rdp, DHCP and MSMQ are all software/technologies that have decades of history and long pre-dated LLMs. seriously, do people not realise it was entirely possible to write insecure or bad code before LLMs?

		Sure, that's true. It is also true that Copilot is currently in use developing Bitlocker and Sharepoint. So I wouldn't be confident saying it was one or the other.

		Especially if they made heavy use of offshoring, which I would bet they did.
