Confidence in AI-generated code is rising in lockstep with its failure rate
If you only read the headlines this year, you’d think AI makes shipping good software easier than ever. Yet, this was the year of very public AI-coding incidents. PocketOS’ production database deletion and a Vercel AI agent shipping unverified code are just two examples of AI-authored code shipped with confidence that turned out to be wrong. And, of course, these AI-coding incidents are distinct from Agentic AI orchestration incidents like the HuggingFace hack by OpenAI.
