Reflecting on Coding Agent Frenzy
Thariq says coding agents can induce mania, feeling productive while nothing really happens, a form of avoidance.
Key points
- @trq212 said there is a kind of mania you can get into with coding agents, where it feels like you're getting a lot done and working all the time but nothing is really happening.
- @trq212 said he thinks it's often a form of avoidance of something else in life.
- @ID_AA_Carmack said AI may well be able to write massive software projects "from scratch", but that almost certainly isn't the fastest / highest performance / highest security / most token efficient way to do things.
- @ID_AA_Carmack said in addition to RL'ing the agents on final task loss, we should try to get them to regularize the building blocks as well, and asked what the standard library would look like that makes the agents most effective.
