> I don't think that AIs have become more trustworthy, the errors are just more subtle.
Honest question: what about the counter-argument that humans make subtle mistakes all the time, so why do we treat AI any differently?
A difference to me is that when we manually write code, we reason about the code carefully with a purpose. Yes we do make mistakes, but the mistakes are grounded in a certain range. In contrast, AI generated code creates errors that do not follow common sense. That said, I don't feel this differentiation is strong enough, and I don't have data to back it up.
