Developers write and execute the unit test, and perhaps component test. Once you get past that to system testing it should be someone independent.

If the same entity is both writing the code and testing the code it’s not great. Even though the code in this instance is there to support testing, it’s still being crafted by an ai that may one day also be expanded to create the tests themselves. It’s that scenario I’m concerned about. It’s part of the reason we do more than just unit test.
Agreed. This project is currently about validating the test coverage/power. It’s not too much of a stretch to envisage it one day actually designing/writing the tests themselves, but this is only a first step. And if it did end up creating tests and also editing the code under test, would there not be an independence issue?
Weirdly it was only on reading your comment that I saw the ambiguity. I quite like it.
I thought it was fungus and bacteria that consumed us?
Missed that, but did think his mouth looks like a gaped anus.
It certainly does.
I was wondering if that was the case with the water. Maybe it was just really clear. If he used an assistant, is it still a self portrait? Serious question.
So how did he trigger the shutter remotely? Alternatively if it was done using a long exposure why doesn’t the water look different, and why isn’t there a blue of him moving into position? Full disclosure, I’m a photography newb. If someone else operated the camera for him, is it still considered a self portrait?

I appreciate the effort, but the archive link keeps timing out on me sorry.
It must be the diapers that are stopping the trickling down.
Guess he’s the latest to be sick of so much winning.
Sounds interesting - got a non-paywalled link handy?

I have to wonder why this comment would be downvoted. It’s because I mentioned the T word isn’t it. Sigh.
If this topic is your bag, I’m guessing you’ve also read Jeffrey Lewis’s book on the topic: https://www.armscontrolwonk.com/books/
A great read, if very slightly outdated. Could still represent a possible future if Trump returns to power, or perhaps even if he doesn’t. Either way, Arms Control Wonk podcast is an entertaining and informative listen for anyone remotely interested in this topic.
At the risk of giving away spoilers, see Neal Stephenson’s Termination Shock. A truly awesome read.
AI could system test, I’d just rather it was a different AI to the one that did the coding. Point being if an entity can write and test code, the same shortcomings that lead to a bug being introduced make it less likely to be found if that entity is also doing the testing. Whether that’s because of a logic fault, or just a misinterpretation of the requirements.
