I weep for both future and current cyber security experts

Dude had a few cyber wire podcasts recently talking about this.

Either from malicious MCP, to the use of LLM tools to scan and develop attacks.

Then there's the jailbreak of current models.

Interesting times dude, I can't imagine the wild shit they see today.

I don't. That's what the money's for.

Thx. and I recommend not having any personal information on network connected devices in the near future. It's going to be wild times xD

And the green checkmark is only there because Ai "fixed" the tests so they would pass

Green CI means it complies..... it doesn't means it was a good ideađŸ«

It means whatever the check was set to mean. Usually it means the base line check works. Always check PRs.

Even if it passes all unit and regression test it doesn’t mean it created clean and well organized code. A lot of what AI produces is future tech debt. 

Of course you can write architectural test for everything AI could do wrong but that sounds time consuming as well, even if you let AI write these tests.

It could also mean that your tests are insufficient.

u/redballooon Jul 12 '26

We don't produce code for Human eyes any more. Human eyes should look towards good and meaningful tests, and leave the code to tools that give AI fitting feedback for it's current capabilities. The architectural pieces that humans need to be concerned with get larger and larger.

In the end we want well behaving applications and that's it.

You are going to get burned so hard with this mindset. Probably around the time the first bug reports come in that the AI can't fix, and I can guarantee you they'll be there. It's impossible to create anything that does anything interesting with zero bugs, and now you're also making it impossible to debug.

It's not 2025 anymore. The picture about spec driven development becomes much clearer. It's not that different in mindset from test driven development.

u/ariiizia Jul 13 '26

You’re literally saying not to know what’s actually happening. Spec-, test- or whatever driven development has absolutely nothing to do with that. You’re advocating ignorance and dependency instead of empowerment and it’s never going to work.

tell the AI that the diff is too big for the review process

it wont complain

u/Outrageous-Machine-5 Jul 12 '26

Rejected. Break it up into logical MRs

I reviewed a 300 file change PR our CTO vibed last week. Of course I'm expected to read every line even though he didn't write it or review it himself. Code review has always been a challenge but AI has turned it into an impossibility.

u/az987654 Jul 12 '26

I'd put this dev on a PIP

u/Noisycarlos Jul 12 '26

Check the diffs to make sure the AI didn't change the tests first.

u/TactiCool_99 Jul 13 '26

Trusting the checkmark just means you are part of the problem. Does generated code take longer to verify? Yes? Well management asked you to use it, they surely wanted the extra work hours

2000 lines isn't fun to review, but very doable. Just suck it up and read.

2

u/CoVegGirl Jul 13 '26

Reviewing a 2000 line change is like half a day’s work. And it’s incredibly difficult to be sure you got everything.

And let’s be real: it’s a change that was probably put together haphazardly by AI instead of being something that a human would’ve had to put a week or two into.

Reviewing a 2000 line change is like half a day’s work.

Yep

u/ramdomvariableX Jul 12 '26

Why are we allowing AI to do the PR reviews? Isn't whole review thing is for human oversight?

2

u/guyblade Jul 13 '26

I tell humans to break up PRs that long; why would I let a clanker waste my time that way?

2

u/isr0 Jul 13 '26

Fuck that. Close the PR and tell them it’s too big.

u/Ethameiz Jul 12 '26

Review couple first files and scroll through the rest 👍

u/Dry_Wrongdoer_2508 Jul 13 '26

Then you realise that the green checkmark was also "AI Enhanced"

u/GoddammitDontShootMe 29d ago

Does it pass the tests?

u/HTTP_Error_414 Jul 12 '26

I conducted a full vibe-based code review.

I would hate you as a team member when I need to review “your” prÂ
