Does he think a single AI model, perhaps in the same instance, will start to get better when put through "hard testing" in his "gauntlet"?

Holy technical debt, uncle Bob.
Actually great. Boss with the LLM-shares is satisfied, because he met the quota. Customers are satisfied, because the code at least works.
It might still not be efficient or maintainable, even have some in the tests unaccounted-for (because they're ridiculous) errors. But aside from that...
We recently had an example of this. See Bun vs Zig. Even if your LLM doesn't have meaningless tests and assertions, those will not have 100% coverage on any non-trivial code base.

Look, I don't care what you do with your gherkin, Uncle Bob, but you do it in private, OK?
One thing I do love about the LLM era is that people get forced to be way more pendantic when it comes to code, and that's a win for everyone.
... Well admist the enormous losses LLM brings
Yup. Bob has always been full of shit.
