> Sean proposes that in the AI future, the specs will become the real code. That in two years, you'll be opening python files in your IDE with about the same frequency that, today, you might open up a hex editor to read assembly (which, for most of us, is never).
Only if AI code generation is correct 99.9% of the time and almost never hallucinates. We trust compilers and don't read assembly code because we know it's deterministic and the output can never be wrong (barring bugs and certain optimization issues, which are rare/one-time fixes). As long as generated code is not doing what the original "code" (in this case, specs) doing, humans need to go back to fix things themselves.
