Enterprise AI Analysis: Do LLMs Trust the Code They Write?

Unlocking AI's Self-Correction Capabilities

Do LLMs Trust the Code They Write?

An analysis of how Large Language Models (LLMs) can internally represent and evaluate the correctness of the code they generate, moving beyond surface-level probabilities to enhance reliability.

Executive Impact & Key Findings

Our analysis reveals the profound implications of LLMs' internal code correctness representations for enterprise software development, offering significant improvements in efficiency and reliability.

LAT (Linear Artificial Tomography) Process for Correctness Extraction

Design Stimulus (Correct/Incorrect Code Pairs)
Collect Neural Activity (Hidden States)
Extract Principal Direction (PCA)
Project Hidden States (Score New Inputs)
Method Key Features Advantage over Baselines
LAT-based Ranking
  • Leverages internal correctness representations
  • Lightweight fitting (PCA)
  • Superior/Comparable to RankEF
  • Reduces costly test executions
RankEF
  • Multi-task learning
  • Execution feedback integration
  • Good performance, but requires extensive training/data
Intrinsic (Log-likelihood)
  • Based on model output probabilities
  • Simple
  • Often poorly correlated with correctness
Reflective (Verbal Confidence)
  • Elicits verbal confidence from LLM
  • Inconsistent
  • Can be unreliable

Impact on Software Development Lifecycle

Our LAT-based ranking method can be integrated into CI/CD pipelines to flag changes where new code appears less correct, prioritizing test cases. In IDEs, it provides confidence scores for code suggestions, enhancing developer productivity and ensuring higher quality code.

Effectively filter out incorrect candidates and highlight promising ones.
