How do you check, from examining behavior alone, that the code does not contain stuff like this:
if (date == <some random future date>) { crash_and_burn_the_world() }

You just get an agent to look for traps.
I actually found code exactly like that would break a test on a certain date, using an agent.
It's really good at flagging things like this, which tend to be leftovers from a human process that nobody has had the time to clean.
How do you do that with a human team? Trust?
"trust" and "responsibility" mean nothing for a fully digital entity who isn't required to feed its family, looking for an eventual new job, and being under pressure for not being fired
