For me, this should be the end goal of the AI pair programming. I write documentation for APIs, data structures, etc., hand it to the AI, and it should crank out functional code that meets the requirements spelled out in the documentation.
We are close, but it's not there yet. I will always need to run a validation test against the code and eyeball to ensure it's not insane. But today, it's clear to me that if ChatGPT/copilot doesn't generate correct code quickly and easily from what I wrote, I didn't understand the problem and couldn't express it clearly.
