Disclosure: Working on a company in the space and have recently been compared to Devin in at least one public talk.
Devin has tried to do too much. There is value in producing a solid code artifact that can be handed off for review to other developers in limited capacities like P2s and minor bugs which pile up in business backlogs.
Focusing on specific elements of the development loop such as fix bugs, add small feature, run tests, produce pull request is enough.
Businesses like Factory AI or my own are taking that approach and we're seeing real interest in our products.
