Hi Guys, I'm going to make a heretical statement. It's this: you don't need AI to generate code and you shouldn't use AI to generate code.Instead I believe AI should be used to elicit the user requirements and the AI can then be used to generate a specification from which code can be mapped to produce code deterministically. We were doing this in a simplified form in the 1980s. If you think this is relevant as an alternative to vibe coding and agentic engineering. Let me know I can show you how all of this works and why it is important in 2026 and beyond. Yes, I am actually that old, but I have a view on the fundamental basics of software engineering. I feel like a survivor of a lost civilisation that has been washed away and forgotten. My approach brings together formal methods and AI in a way that was impossible back in the day. But... now that we have the compute and proper AI, not just IKBS, we can focus on generating a specification and not the code. A specification that can persist across the entire SDLC. All a bit like all the other branches of engineering that have drawings, specifications and circuit diagrams and things. Cheers me dears, Loz
