Requiring you to audit both security and robustness on the LLM generated code.

Creating two problems, where there was one.

I didn't say generate :) - in all seriousness, I think you could reasonably have it copy the code for e.g. lodash.merge() and paste it into your codebase without the headaches you're describing. IMO, this method would be practical for a majority of npm deps in prod code. There are some I'd want to rely on the lib (and its maintenance over time), but also... a sort function is a sort function.

LLMs don't copy and paste. They ingest and generate. The output will always be a generated something.

You can give an LLM access to tools that it can invoke to actually copy and paste.

In 2022, sure. But not today. Even something as simple as generating and running a `git clone && cp xyz` command will create code not directly generated by the LLM.

In what way do you think this rebuts the message you responded to?

[vFunct]

LLMs can do the audits now.
