AI-Assisted Coding and Outages

Lately it feels like every week there's a massive outage: Cloudflare unwrap bug1, React vuln2, weird AWS behavior3, Windows breaking localhost4…

Big incidents have always existed, but the current flood feels different.

My take: most of these seem tied to the explosion of AI-assisted / "vibe" coding. Engineers still review, CI still runs, tests still pass… yet things blow up in prod.

The tools got fast, but our verification systems around AI-generated code clearly aren't there yet.

Not against AI coding — just saying we're not catching the new class of mistakes it introduces. That's all.
