Recent evolution of ML based machine translation produce very convincing text for most of the sane input. It looks so natural and pleasant to read... But, it sometimes fails catastrophically like flip negative and positive sentence or completely lost a sentence.
The same things will happens with this tech. You may argue that's where the human programmers comes in to check the code, but can you spot the almost sound code with just one letter of difference that cause the complete failure?
But I fear this is the way we head to. If it does work most of the time, majority of people accept the risk. Because, at certain point, it's indistinguishable from human error rate.
