When AI Starts Writing Systems Code

CoreAuto, a developer of autonomous vehicle software, reports that AI models are now generating systems-level code for its self-driving platform, a shift that could accelerate development but raises new safety and verification challenges. The company's engineers found that large language models can produce correct low-level code for tasks like memory management and device drivers, though human oversight remains essential. CoreAuto is integrating AI-generated code into its production pipeline while developing automated tools to validate it.
