Humans can barely write safe C code, so I definitely don't trust AI to. I'm not even blanket against AI assistance in programming, but there are way too many hidden landmines in C for an LLM to be reliable with.

I use it in C++ and it has been very helpful. The OP appears to be just blanket against AI assistance in programming? There's no indication of what degree Claude was involved here, or what amount of blind trust the human reviewers gave to it.

I agree with you. More to the point...why accept code from anyone (clanker or meatbag) without provenance?

If I don't know you, and you can't explain what it does? Straight into the garbage it goes.

The issue isn’t AI contamination. It’s accepting code from any source without provenance and accountable review.

I suspect the anti-AI push is coming from Russia or China, probably because the AI products that are in such high demand right now are of Western origin.
