It would be nearly impossible to debug. Kinda useless.

Also kinda impossible to get anything done that is bigger than the context window.

    But AI would be doing the debugging, not humans.

    Why would AI bros need to worry about reading the code?

    Get infallible AIs first, then we can talk. As of now, AIs can generate a ton of code and most of it will work, but humans still need to fix it in the end. Once you run into a bug the AI can't solve, I don't know what you're gonna do with software that has no human-legible source code.
