It’s kind of funny - there’s another thread up where a dev claimed a 20-50x speed up. To their credit they posted videos and links to the repo of their work.

And when you check the work, a large portion of it was hand rolling an ORM (via an LLM). Relatively solved problem that an LLM would excel at, but also not meaningfully moving the needle when you could use an existing library. And likely just creating more debt down the road.

The best specification is code. English is a very poor approximation.

I can’t get past that by the time I write up an adequate spec and review the agents code, I probably could have done it myself by hand. It’s not like typing was even remotely close to the slow part.

AI, agents, etc are insanely useful for enhancing my knowledge and getting me there faster.
