I just finished getting a one hour demo of the current meta in agentic programming from an actually-technical CTO.
100% stand by my statements in the latest blog post. It was very slightly better than I expected, but the CTO said many times "I would never trust this in production", and their main use was knocking out POCs that were being handled by an offshore (read: cheap and not very good) dev team.
Anyone laying off their Real Software Engineers on the grounds of AI productivity are nuts.
