  • There’s no such thing as “agents”, there must always be a human in the loop, they don’t just create code from nothing. Both in the sense of a human needing to prompt the LLM, and in the fact that they’re trained on human created code. “Agents” is just a buzzword made by tech CEOs and MBAs to make the general population think they’re doing more than they really are. They have no skills, they’re a statistical prediction model. And prediction models tend to fuck up a lot of things, especially as the data window grows.

    You can use them to help code, yes, but don’t do what the billionaire class wants and make them seem like more than they really are.




  • It’s like that’s almost exactly what I mentioned you said, and exactly why I’m commenting proper links to older posts! It fixes the proxying issue you mention to include it in the post, so I’m happy I can be of assistance. I’m still not sure why it’s so upsetting to you when users link back to other posts in the comments, especially when you weren’t the first one to post it. It helps drive conversation when people know it’s happening elsewhere.
