I've been playing with AI agents for months, and most of them are pretty bad. They often get stuck in loops, which is frustrating. This happens in MultiOn, AutoGPT, and others.
I've used Devin a few times (see: https://x.com/varunshenoy\_/status/1767591341289250961?s=20), and while it's far from perfect, it's by far the best I've seen. It doesn't get stuck in loops, and it keeps trying new things until it succeeds. Devin feels like a fairly competent high school intern.
Interestingly, Devin seems better suited as an entry-level analyst than a software engineer. We've been using it internally to scrape and structure real estate listings. Their stack for web RPA and browser automation works _really_ well. And it makes sense why this is important: if you want to have a successful agent, you need to provide it with good tools. Again, it's not flawless, but it gives me hope for the future of AI agents.
