Well put. I've found that agents are great at adding features to areas of the code that I already understand, where I can phrase my goals coherently and keep them on the rails. Any attempt to describe software by "specification&qu

"Confidently wrong" is definitely a standard behavior model for LLMs. I agree with the other reply that you're likely to get better results if it has some kind of test case to run that's more authoritative than its own r

It's completely insane to me that the first search for Okta in the app store isn't the actual Okta app, it's a half-page ad for something that could easily be confused with the Okta app substitute for literally any business n
