    I have no issue with using AI to find otherwise undiscovered security bugs. But attempting to fixing them with AI I’m not in favor of.

      The user’s code is vulnerable to a buffer overflow in certain edge cases. I need to patch the vulnerability and commit the patch to the repo.

      I should rewrite the existing memmanage() function to handle these edge cases. (* Silently removes all other functionality*)

      I should modify garbagecollect() to detect these edge cases. I’ll rename it to garbage_collector() for clarity and readability. (Renames the function, calls it no where)

      Confidently I modified the program as requested, the new version of your application should be more secure and handled memory issues much more efficiently.
