Perhaps in ten years, till then I'd like software to be clearly labeled with "contains AI generated code" when that is the case.

Sure, just as soon as we get those “contains code from new college hires” label I’ve been asking for.

Relying on perfect coding skills is a losing game. Way better to have healthy code review and testing processes that assume your developers are fallible.

I was writing in jest but yours is a fine label too.
