Pretty much.
I’ve started using AI on a project last week and the first thing I do is write tests. Lots of tests.
With enough guardrails, you could actually get pretty decent quality output out of it and with enough regression tests, you can ensure that nothing’s actually breaking.
Similarly, reviewing its changes and actually reading the code that’s being generated to ensure correctness is necessary. However, I am finding ways to automate that and reduce the incident rate of problems to even lower than my co-workers.

that’s nowhere near enough testing for such a large change… special one written by the slop machine
