Fake security. Libraries are devs are just dereferring the work to another dev, which might be dereferring it to an AI without anyone knowing.

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, when it is supposed to be used in the future.

When I use Signal for example, I profit from the security that resulted from statelevel attacks, found by https://citizenlab.ca/ and other investigative entities.

Even when this work is done by AI agents in the future, the number of users automatically increases the number of potential improvements for opensource software.

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 ...
