That's true.

The problem is that if the automation breaks at any point, the entire system fails. And programming automations are extremely sensitive to minor errors (i.e. a missing semicolon).

AI does have an interesting feature though, it tends to self-healing in a way, when given tools access and a feedback loop. The only problem is that self-healing can incorrectly heal errors, then the final reault will be wrong in hard-to-detect ways.

So the more wuch hidden bugs there are, the nore unexpectedly the automations will perform.

I still don't trust current AI for any tasks more than data parsing/classification/translation and very strict tool usage.

I don't beleive in the full-assistant/clawdbot usage safety and reliability at this time (it might be good enough but the end of the year, but then the SWE bench should be at 100%).
