Don't worry, unless it's like GLM being used, every AI tool will refuse to backdoor the code.

Just like you just need to ask the LLM to "make it bug free".

(At this point even I'm more sure if any of this is sarcasm.)

it's only the frontier models for 'Us' that refuse things, i'm not so delusional as to think it'd refuse work for 'Them', and 'Them' are often the ones backdoor-ing things.
