What would you say is the main difference in terms of how to feel or the output you produce, between what you are doing now and what you were doing 2 years ago? What kind of code base are you using this setup on?

It does feel like what agents are trying to achieve In my experience, there are a lot of details that always emerge during development, that require an person’s involvement. Also agents tend to choke on long instructions, they are usually b

That’s also been my experience At the same time, I’ve seen the system prompts for a few agents ( https://github.com/x1xhlol/system-prompts-and-models-of-ai-t... ), and they are huge How does that work?

I'm not sure about giving specific metrics or kpis of efficiency or performance It definitely feels different to develop using LLMs, especially things from scratch. At this point, you can't just have the LLM do everything. Sooner

Found this post recently and was curious about people here on HN, with kids. At what age are you introducing computers, phones, AI? And at what age do you let them use those things by themselves?
