This is just a footnote in the article, but is incredibly important, IMO: ”There’s a risk that codebases begin to surpass human comprehension as a result of more AI in the development process, scaling bug complexity along with (or perhaps faster than) discovery capability. Human-comprehensibility is an essential property to maintain, especially in critical software like browsers and operating systems.” This aligns with my own experience, and I believe experience of most practitioners in the field: writing a piece of code is just a beginning of a very long journey. We should be careful about optimizing that first step at the expense of the journey. |
