    It’s usually vastly easier to verify an answer than posit one, if you have the patience to do so.

    I’m envisioning a world where multiple AI engines create and check each others’ work… the first thing they need to make work to support that scenario is probably fusion power.

      I usually write 3x the code to test the code itself. Verification is often harder than implementation.

        Yes, but the test code “writes itself” - the path is clear, you just have to fill in the blanks.

        Writing the proper product code in the first place, that’s the valuable challenge.

          Maybe it is because I started out in QA, but I have to strongly disagree. You should assume the code doesn’t work until proven otherwise, AI or not.
