Engineer: even with full test gates, not reading AI code still feels like YOLO

Engineer cjimti says he spends most of his time on the SDLC, using mechanical gates to define a large suite of test frameworks—lint, mutation, acceptance, and regression testing. Yet not looking at the code still feels YOLO: like self-driving cars, statistically safer than any human driver, but the gut feeling of recklessness remains.
