I am not arguing that a human should do it. I am only arguing, that reuse of code makes it defnitly more resilient.
Since the code is exposed to more users and more abusers, it will have to improve, ...
Code reuse just means a single point of failure. If Signal's source code is affected, it affects ALL users at the same time. It's an awesome honeypot, potentially extremely profitable, for any attacker to crack.
If each AI is rebuilding signal for each user, then the attacker will need to get the attack to work in all AIs to get the profits they want. It's much more difficult/costly. And thus more resilient than an single code base that can be influenced not only by AI, but all kinds of member states and legal offices.
