Doesn't matter, I'm not responsible for maintaining that particular code

The code in my PRs has my name attached, and I'm not trusting any LLM with my name

Exactly, that's what I'm saying. Commit AI code under its own name. Then the code under your name can use the AI code as a black box. If your code that uses AI code works as expected, it is similar to when using libraries.

If you consider that AI code is not code any human needs to read or later modify by hand, AI code is modified by AI. All you want to do is just fully test it, if it all works, it's good. Now you can call into it from your own code.

    I think we need to go back to this. I think a computer cannot be held accountable so a computer should never make any decision with any kind of real world impact

    I don't see what that does. The AI hardly cares about it's reputation and I also can't really blame the AI when my boss or a customer asks me why something failed, so what does committing under its name do?

    I'm ultimately still responsible for the code. And unlike AI, library authors but their and their libraries reputation on the line.
