I have a visceral "AI" sensor that triggers when I see these:

"Rust Implementation (v2)"

"Performance Benchmarks (Validated)"

Human beings don't self-validate explicitly like that. AI loves doing it.

You generate code, there's a bug, you ask for a fix, your AI of choice will always output with:

*** Fix build issue ***

*** End fix ***

and then call it "Version 2 (Validated)".

Sometimes it's more subtle, but you can feel it, it loves adding "confirmed", "working", "validated".

"I'm confident in my solution."

Alarm bells.
