# Code must not be written by humans

## Quote
> 'Code must not be written by humans. Code must not be even reviewed by humans.'

## Speaker
[[entity-nate-b-jones|Nate B. Jones]], quoting [[entity-strongdm|StrongDM]]'s operating principles.

## Significance
This is the single most striking articulation of the [[concept-dark-factory|Dark Factory]] philosophy — a foundational principle that **completely removes humans from the implementation layer**, including from the safety net of code review. It defines the radical endpoint of the [[framework-5-levels-vibe-coding|5 Levels of Vibe Coding]].
