I tasked an AI agent with the implementation of an algorithm from a research paper. 15 minutes later: clean code, green tests, plausible visualizations. Hours later: I'm still not sure if it's correct.

What happens when AI generates code faster than you can understand the domain?

Faster than understanding

An AI coding agent implemented a complex software metric in 15 minutes. I have now spent hours trying to figure out whether the implementation is correct. Is this really a productivity boost?
