@RuthMalan What happens when an agent is no longer available? How does the software survive? It seems they've introduced a massive point of failure into their process and are completely blind to it.

I don't understand how this software passes even rudimentary V&V. Verification is mostly mechanical but validation seems completely ignored here.

Maybe it's because I work in an engineerong culture and not a software development culture that this all seems dangerously unsustainable and detached from reality. Handing implementation to a stochastic black box seems unwise to put it mildly.f
