Comment on Ask HN: Are agents _still_ writing most of your code?

Comments

I'm using them more and more right now, but I only started really diving into agent-based A.I. coding the past couple of months.

It's especially nice after work, as I tend to be pretty low energy after work lately, and have a hard time sitting at a computer and coding even more.

With agent-based I can write up some medium-level detail specs (I'd do more if I need more, but it seems to be fine with what I give it most of the time), fire it off, and do something else away from the screen for a while, before checking in on it and reviewing it.

About the only thing I've been coding on my personal projects recently has been creating and checking in assets or putting in data.

Like I'm working on a card game and it was able to come up with something data-wise that was good enough for placeholders, but now it needs to be accurate, so I'm going in and changing it manually.
