AI Now Writing Code That Humans Can't Even Understand

AI coding has gotten to the point where some engineers are no longer able to make sense of the code being spat out.

😜 P.S. Thanks to #xkcd for original comic/idea xkcd.com/2052/ #StanislavPetrov

An xkcd comic panel featuring two stick figures. The figure on the left holding a smartphone says, "Hey, Saturday was Stanislav Petrov Day. We missed it." The figure on the right responds, "Oh, shoot! I got a calendar alert for it, but I assumed it was a false alarm."

I believe if the AI arms race slows down, the whole circular financing scheme propping it up collapses, stocks tank, tech leaders' cult of personality is exposed as a sham, and everything goes to hell. It would be painful for humanity as a whole, but it just might be beneficial.
