Debugging AI-Generated Code: The 'Facts First' Method That Catches Agent Hallucinations

The article presents a debugging methodology for AI-generated code based on three production incidents, advocating a constraint-satisfaction approach where agents collect immutable facts before forming hypotheses, use control comparisons to isolate strong signals, and verify against all evidence to avoid hallucinated fixes.

How Chinese Banks' Precious Metals Offerings Deviate from Standards — and Why Paper Gold Is Disappearing

The article maps the official five-category classification of agency precious metals business against actual product lines at ICBC, China Merchants Bank, and Minsheng Bank, reveals that account precious metals (paper gold) have been phased out since 2021 due to regulatory reclassification as derivatives and the 'Oil Treasure' fallout, and contrasts paper gold with the now-favored accumulation gold across eight dimensions including leverage, physical delivery, and target users.

Beyond Self-Healing: Isolation Observation Strategy for Test Failure Governance

This article critiques AI-driven self-healing tests for masking real defects and bypassing new business logic, proposing a four-step isolation observation framework—classify failures, attempt temporary recovery, track failure clusters through a state machine, and precipitate reusable knowledge—to make failures explainable, controllable, and accumulative rather than chasing zero failures.

AI Accelerates Architecture Design; Architects Must Validate Boundaries, References, and Decisions

While AI can rapidly generate architecture diagrams and specifications, architects must rigorously define system boundaries, verify reference materials, document decision rationale with trade-offs, and adapt their skills to orchestrate AI workflows and evaluate outcomes to prevent unverified assumptions from entering production.
