Wait. Wasn't AI supposed to alleviate the burden of legacy code?!
Legacy code, not the running systems powered by legacy code
If you’re still an AI skeptic at this point, I don’t know what sort of advancement could convince you that this is happening.
If we have the source and it's easy to test, validate, and deploy an update - AI should make those easier to update.
I am thinking of situations where one of those aren't true - where testing a proposed update is expensive or complicated, that are in systems that are hard to physically push updates to (think embedded systems) etc
