Engineering Trustworthy Software: A Mission for LLMs

TL;DR

This whitepaper explains how LLM-driven software engineering requires addressing multiple challenges such as accuracy, scalability, bias, and explainability to be trustworthy.

Abstract

LLMs are transforming software engineering by accelerating development, reducing complexity, and cutting costs. When fully integrated into the software lifecycle they will drive design, development and deployment while facilitating early bug detection, continuous improvement, and rapid resolution of critical issues. However, trustworthy LLM-driven software engineering requires addressing multiple challenges such as accuracy, scalability, bias, and explainability.
