No, definitely not. We've all been using libraries for decades with very real (and not rare at all) human-made bugs in them and almost never verified the code by reading each and every line. That would be impractical in most cases, even if it may be required in a few rare cases. What we do is test, to very various degrees depending on the domain.

There'd be a debate to have about why LLMs are threatening to some engineers while they are empowering to others. I'm having a blast producing the best output I ever done while some of my colleagues are suffering to the point of thinking about changing careers. There must be deep psychological reasons to this.
