Is it like self driving cars, where 100% non-human code would be arguably safer?

But then it always comes down to having some human who is accountable for verifying the behavior. I think ultimately we just need a better set of languages and frameworks to minimally encode the types of applications we want to build today, so that human comprehension and verification of the source code becomes easier.

How would 100% non-human code possibly be safer?

I've noticed that when only AI writes the code, there are cases where it ends up being unusable by humans. For small code snippets or function-level units, AI is often much better than me. But when I look at the whole picture, AI tends to perform poorly.

Category error. Self-driving cars are still meticulously coded by humans.
