> At a certain point you won’t have to read and understand every line of code it writes, you can trust that a “module” you ask it to build works exactly like you’d think it would, with a clearly defined interface to the rest of your handwritten code.

"A certain point" is bearing a lot of load in this sentence... you're speculating about super-human capabilities (given that even human code can't be trusted, and we have code review processes, and other processes, to partially mitigate that risk). My impression was that the post you were replying to was discussing the current state of the art, not some dimly-sensed future.
