In the long run that's the promise of RL; build the verifications vs the model. As a SWE we could be relegated to doing what many consider the "boring part" of software development, which is just writing case by case test cases rather than the code/model of the world interaction. The "math/intellectual" part may get rarer which sadly devalues the skill/intelligence part of software development assuming the AI can come up with a code model that meets requirements.
Personally however I've found more luck generating requests from the "code model" rather than generating code from the "tests" at present. Only because tests are usually much more code than the code itself under test (one code has many scenarios) w.r.t. productivity. Everything still needs review, manual tweaking and understanding of course for now.
