90% of human devs can fit more than 3-5 files into their short-term memory.
They also know not to, say, temporarily disable auth to be able to look at the changes they've made on a page hidden behind auth, which is what I observed Gemini 3 Pro doing just yesterday.

- input_sh 10mo agoDo you understand what the term "context window" means? Have you ever tried using an LLM to program anything even remotely complex? Have you observed how the quality of the output drastically reduces the longer the coversation gets? That's what makes it bad at security. It cannot comprehend more than a floppy drive worth of data before it reverts to absolute gibberish.
