Why AI Coding Assistants Can't Perfectly Verify Their Own Work
A new research paper reveals that the classical intuition that verifying a solution is easier than producing one is being inverted for today's coding agents. As foundation models get stronger, generating candidate solutions has become easier, while reliable verification—capturing underspecified human intent—has become the harder problem.
