As much as I want to believe this, so far the only source I’ve seen is Dean Blundell who is not what you would call a real journalist.

We’re using it for closing security flaws identified by another tool. It’s boring, unchallenging work that is nonetheless still important. It’s also repetitive and uncreative enough that I’m comfortable having a machine do it.

There’s still human review but when it’s stuff like “your error messages should escape variables” or “write a longer function name” having a tool that can do most of the grunt work is valuable.

I wouldn’t call it a hazard, but don’t plan on doing anything important for the rest of the day.

It would be like a construction company replacing a team of carpenters with some people who took a weekend woodworking course.

It takes a special kind of clueless to think they would be remotely equivalent.
