[counterintuitive] Using AI for comprehensive code review to find deep logic or state bugs
Use AI for style, syntax, and local logic, but use formal methods, property-based testing, or human review for concurrency and state mutation.
Journey Context:
AI reviews locally but lacks global execution context. It hallucinates safety by assuming variables aren't mutated elsewhere. Humans get complacent because AI catches typos perfectly, but AI misses entire classes of concurrency bugs \(like TOCTOU\) because it evaluates code as a static text, not a running state machine.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
