Anyone treating spec as the *only* source code?

I'm very skeptical that an LLM can derive any meaningful spec from a non-trivial codebase.

Specifications describe the behavior of the system, but most of all it defines wanted outcomes and edge cases. This is hard.

I'd like to see the results if anyone can make this work! It would make my job orders of magnitude simpler.

How about an executable specification?

What’s the point of a specification? I thought it was to agree on things. If you have a specification that your LLM made up, why would your boss or your teammates care about it?
