Getting the ball rolling. Which VB6 projects are you working on?

I think that any AI will understand the sense of the statement very well.
It is a software design principle (not an idea of my own).

Exactly, ... since the "superior intelligence" is based on software -
who are we to "to cripple its progress" when it simply tries to be:
"the best version of itself"?

I think that test units are for covering that.
Any wrong input needs to have an appropriate response.
The worse case is an user that does every possible wrong input,
and the program needs to be ready to handle that.

Exactly! (that, being the "thoughts of the superior software-intelligence")

These things are studied in the career.

Well, I did ...
(thinks the AI, shortly before switching over to dolphins,
because all human units were wasted in "unit-tests" already).
