    “So just to make it really clear: If you found a bug using AI tools, the chances are somebody else found it too. If you actually want to add value, read the documentation, create a patch too, and add some real value on top of what the AI did. Don’t be the drive-by ‘send a random report with no real understanding’ kind of person. OK?”

    Makes sense to me, most of the time the AI output need to be used as input for a human who can then deliver the real value, or at least verify the correctness of the AI output.

      The funny thing is that this is the ONE usecase where LLMs can’t themselves make anything worse, because if used sensibly it’s basically just a black box that pokes at your software until something breaks, the whole point is to break things!

      But of course AI-users can’t even fucking handle that, they’re so utterly incapable of doing any work themselves that “look at the thing and write down things that go wrong and why it went wrong, and check if it has already been reported before submitting your own report” is too much for them to handle.
