How to Kill the Code Review

Human-written code died in 2025. Code reviews will die in 2026.

This #guide provides a #framework for writing effective #specifications for #AIcodingagents. It emphasises starting with a high-level vision and letting the AI draft the details, structuring the spec like a professional PRD, and integrating the spec into the development toolchain. The guide also highlights the importance of planning, breaking tasks into smaller chunks, and continuously iterating on the spec and implementation. https://addyo.substack.com/p/how-to-write-a-good-spec-for-ai-agents?AIagents.at #AIagent #AI #ML #NLP #LLM #GenAI

It's insane that if you need more detailed info about a #computer or any other modern device the manufacturer is the last place to look. Sales specs are useless crap when it comes to #technical #specifications. I was looking for information about the spare m.2 port on one of my older #lenovo laptops and of course "256 GB SSD storage" is the best lenovo will tell you in their "tech spec". Really? That's your tech spec? Why not just write "machine go brrrrr" and call it a day?

Reading posts about #LLM from management folks, I think they have forgotten the basics such as
1. #productivity != gains,
2. #specifications are hard to get right,
3. English (natural language) is less precise than #programming #languages, and
4. gains are almost always unrealized due to chasing wrong goals.
