In my experience, the issue has been likelihood of exploitation or issue severity. Claude gets it wrong almost all the time.

A threat model matters and some risks are accepted. Good luck convincing an LLM of that fact

Those interested in testing optimizers may have a look at equivalence modulo testing, a fascinating research field:

This has been the case since I moved to Germany, 6 years ago. National humiliation is apparently an insufficient detterent.

It really depends on the implementation? From my understanding, WebRTC uses it to broker the connection and nothing more. Then it's p2p

WASM runs in the browser which is why it receives so much consideration (rightfully so).

Personally, I think that's a good idea. Design patterns naturally make sense (Visitor, Builder for e.g) once you encounter such a situation in your codebase. It almost makes complete sense then. Otherwise IMHO, it's just premature abstraction

How is one supposed to context switch between reading a book and rigorously understanding and verifying potentially hundreds of lines of code generated by an AI?

If you can translate the schema into native rust types, then yes!

https://github.com/oxidecomputer/typify may help for starters. Please create an issue if you need further help with integration!

Glad to hear this! Please create an issue if you run into any issues during the integration.

I'm assuming it's similar to Spotify using session musicians to create ghost artists. Instagram won't need to pay actual creators since they own all the content created by these AI generated will be owned by them

An idea I that I considered implementing was to instrument parser libraries (png/pdf etc) with address sanitizer (for iMessage/Chrome/Webkit) and run the instrumented version for 5% of all parsing operations. If we get enough people to use this, exploits may be easier to discover?
