#AI Someone(s) have lost the plot. Is it me? On LI, I saw two posts from people I consider smart, or at least listening to.
1) First one is an exec.
2) Second is career professional.

1) Exec says that he doesn't look at code anymore. In that, he means that he still performs code reviews, but doesn't write code from scratch. When broached about how he errors in errors in the code he does review (and admits there are always errors), he pivots to asking how would testing tools have caught this if a human didn't. If the testing didn't or couldn't catch it, it's a problem with the tests. Furthermore, testing tooling is garbage RN, and exists only to check boxes. \2
