Guess you can't really prove that, unless you leave comments like "generated by Claude" in it with timestamp and whatnot ๐Ÿ˜ Or one can prove that you are unable to get to that result yourself.

So nonsense, yes.

Cursor, an ai/agentic-first ide, is doing this with a blame-style method. Each line as it's modified, added DOES show history of ai versus each human contributor.

So, not nonsense in probability, but in practice -- no real enforcement to turn the feature on.

Why would you want this?

If you pushed the bug that took down production - they aren't gonna whataboutism the AI generated it. They're still going to fire you.

Sorry, but as another reply: pushing bugs to production doesn't immediately equate to firing. Bug tickets are common and likely addressing issues in production.

Hence the "took down production"

I guess you mean like full outtage for all users? My bad just a lot of ways to take the verb "down" for me. Still, though, what a crappy company to not learn but fire from that experience!
