MODERATORS
It's just prompt engineering for coding. Let an AI dump a bunch of code for you, debug until it no longer errors, pull request and repeat next sprint.
5% of the time, it works every time
Brought to you by (us) security researchers who will happily come in and sort out your security issues later. For a very hefty hourly fee.
I really doubt anybody will be happy about it, even after considering the size of the fees. And also, you have a very high estimation of the capacity of those people to notice they have to call you, I really doubt it's deserved.
Deserved. These companies need to find it out the hard way.
The critical detail being that you don't actually know what's inside (and it's definitely bad). Just using LLM assistance for a your boilerplate code doesn't count.
Is it truly a deviation from outsourcing code to a 3rd party?
Yeah, because at least a decent 3rd party might hand you documentation and have the sense to build something consistent or maintainable. AI has a limited context scope and frequently suffers a type of short term memory loss that results in repeated work or variations in work that confuse the end result.
Yeah, unlike an outsourcing outfit an AI company won't take the fall when given shit requirement and shit pay they deliver shit work.
