A big part of the solution to this will be more, more focused, and more efficient QA.

Test-driven development can inherently be cycled until correct (that's basically equivalent to what a Generative Adversarial Network does under the hood anyhow).

I heard a lot of tech shops gutted their QA departments. I view that as a major error on their parts, if QA folks are current modern tooling (not only GenAI) and not trying to do everything manually.



Many years ago I was at a very large software company, that everyone has heard of.

Blackbox QA was entirely gutted, only some whitebox QA. Their titles were changed to software engineer from QA engineer. Dev were supposed to do TDD and that’s it, and there’s a fundamental issue there which looks like people don’t even realize.

Anyway, we digress.
