I guess an ostrich. I’d love to watch a senior eng with their agentic flow. So far the ones I’ve tried have been disappointing. 🤷🏼♂️
Hearing from a lot of good founders that AI tools are writing most of their code now. Software engineers orchestrate the AI. They are also finding it extremely hard to hire because most experienced engineers have their heads in the sand and refuse to learn the latest tools.
