AI is great but you have to be able to call on everything you learnt prior 
to the arrival of LLMs to leverage the stochastic parrots properly (i.e. 
fixing their errors and flat out hallucinations): this is why pure vibe 
coding by people with no coding experience remains bullsh*t. #compsci #AI

Prove that A.I. is really coding not copying or stealing some human's 
work! :)

Vibe coding is just requirements engineering practice on a model of a
segment of human coders. Vibe coders create policies for a software
construction gig economy (in effect, the defence industry, because who
else would need software construction prompts applicable to gig coding).

What made vibe more trustworhty than non-vibe? Because vibe has "weapons 
of mass destruction"? Because vibe is authorized to kill humans? :)

Why do you trust source codes found by A.I.?

A.I. merely helps programmers find canned source codes. Opening the can 
of worms, doing quality control and auditing security should still be 
done by human.

BTW, I think you were talking about:

helps, helped, or will help?

mere LLMs don't even help find canned source codes, expert systems do that.

Automated theorem provers can translate requirements direct to correct
(and provably correct) programs (by the Curry-Howard correspondence).
Auditing security should be done by these.

Expert Systems and Automated Theorem Provers are AI too.

LLMs could assist in generating conjectures for the automated theorem
provers but then human language could become formalised and not natural
and then we're in a double-plus-dystopia. LLMs should be very useful to
create semi-formal statements that requirements encoders and customers
mutually understand, but perhaps not by linguistic prompts but by
providing faster navigation through the space of meaning - and faster
mapping direct from the space of meaning to formal expressions of
requirements.

Would you, as a human, blindly trust A.I. buttons called "security" and 
"programming"? You still need to examine and audit the source codes of 
A.I. You still need to patrol & sample generated codes to gurantee that 
they were not tampered with. Persons doing these jobs still need to know 
programming and read source codes.

Humans are insecure, there are no solutions.

How about A.I. auditing A.I.? That still needs a trusted A.I.!

Ultimately, Who is/are to be fired or even sued if A.I. went wrong? You? 
You? You?

Who wanna take total responsibilty?

Not me! Because I dunno how to trust A.I. and its programmers! :)
