This stuff is so fascinating as a glimpse of what happens when you remove human oversight completely and just let an agent-loop completely run wild. Also fascinating because doing this significantly better feels totally attainable while still getting a lot of benefit from the tools: this mess is a CHOICE.

@tikitu if you believe that the mess is a choice, the question becomes what different choice could work better and why aren't the people with infinite money, resources, access to the model, and whose future as a company depends on making that choice making that choice.

@jonny Part of their choice is what “better” means. Producing better *code* requires using human judgement much more, which slows down shipping and costs more in human labour. The choice they’re making is to decide not to do that. Like I said earlier: I think they’re either betting on model improvements making it irrelevant, or the nature of the product keeping it irrelevant. I have no idea if they’re right for them; damn sure the same choice isn’t right for anything I’m close to.

@jonny (I *hope* they’re not right for them either, it’s a bleak bloody future if this is the most effective way for anyone to ship something people use.)
