I can generate LLM code and it will be very stable long term, but you must be QA minded and non-stop testing, ask and make sure it generate maintainable code, watch for code smell etc. Maybe it won't match a very seasoned dev, but LLM's generate sht code because the dev allows it at the review stage.

Also, the need to move with speed is an exercise in self control so you don't cut corners and accept code without really look at it. There are so many times when I catch really blatant stuff that if not caught would be over engineering, wrong engineering, hacks, logic code copies without reuse etc etc.

I don't like how it compared itself to 5.6 Luna instead of Sol, and still losing on some metrics. You will not see me using this over even 5.6 Sol-light

It rubs me the wrong way that they have to copy everything, the UI is almost exact copy of Codex. The entire mind set of just copy the best is holding them back.

The AI open source/closed source dynamic is like a pandoras box that keeps evolving and seemingly unpredictable side effects feed back to affect each other. Is actually great material for tech nerd drama

It’s true that current tech can’t do it and he has said it but it doesn’t mean new tech can’t do it. He is assuming other civilizations cannot do it and also assuming probes will be easily detected therefore there are no probes

You use a shared agents.md and an auto updated architecture doc but that is the one that needs to be heavily scrutinized and everyone gets a turn to review it.

This will be true because LLMs will increasingly generate better code faster and will outpace your patience to read the code while being entice to move forward faster because of partial trust. Like an engineer that you direct to do things, you as a technical manager can only review so much. It will drift till we are just asking it to review and give you a overview for you to review.

Every feature you add to you product really explodes the amount of new states you have to take care of, in addition to the risk of diverting the core product vision
