Embrace Trustworthy Solutions, Avoid DIY Security

When it comes to security, particularly in writing authentication and cryptographic libraries, it's critical to rely on third-party solutions instead of attempting to create your own. The available online code is often inadequate and insecure. However, in the context of AI, there's a debate about whether models trained solely on human data can surpass the quality of that data. Despite this, experiences with tools like Copilot suggest that it's possible for AI to produce better outputs, as it learns from both good and bad examples. The tendency to generate bad code reflects the broader spectrum of coding practices, illustrating that average coding often leans toward recognizable but suboptimal choices, as opposed to optimal solutions which can be more nuanced.
