We're not talking about God, we're talking about a machine, here on Earth, we can poke and prod and explore and test. It's perfectly within the realm of logic to prove it can't do things. Can you prove the AI machine cannot solve the halting problem for arbitrary programs? Yes, that's a negative you can prove, so your objection about proving negatives needs qualification.

Asking you to justify a limitation you asserted doesn't mean I cannot be convinced. You're asserting Kernighan's law holds for AI, I'm saying there are other ways to debug than applications of cleverness. Does throwing more attempts at that spaghetti find vulnerabilities even when the thing that wrote it can't easily understand it? I'm not saying AI must be able to do it because you can't prove it can't. I'm asking what supports your claim that it can't.
