You know I keep seeing this, and I keep trying AI, and my experience really just does not track with the grandiose claims y’all keep making. Maybe you’re some canned code shop with crap devs, but even then I’m real curious what the use case is where AI agents can take over from real devs like you’re claiming. Sounds like marketing hype more than anything.

    You may try to attack my character by implying a bot or throwaway account but my point stands and all metrics agree with what i said. I literally used the newest model of a certain company (not naming them) and the agent finished a weeks work in 2 sessions. It even found lib incompatibilities and a weird bug in codebase without even prompting for that. The models became better but the harness got really good now. Your experience may be a skill issue, your prompts may suck or even your codebase might be too big, or cope, either way we are screwed, please don’t give a false hope by moving the goalpost each time a llm evolves further, it’s better for programmers to swim with the wave and evolve with the profession than be stuck in denial and becone obsolete.

    I keep trying AI When you try AI, how do to do it? And do you try for hours? Days? Weeks? There’s a learning curve to use these tools productively, and they often feel unproductive early on while developing your proficiency. I think the learning curve is often misunderstood or understood, possibly because we interface with these tools using natural language. We overestimate how “easy” it “should” be. (This was my own experience anyway, when I first started learning to use AI)
