> People coding with LLMs today use agents. Agents get to poke around your codebase on their own. They author files directly. They run tools. They compile code, run tests, and iterate on the results. ...
Is this what people are really doing? Who is just turning AI loose to modify things as it sees fit? If I'm not directing the work, how does it even know what to do?
I've been subjected to forced LLM integration from management, and there are no "Agents" anywhere that I've seen.
Is anyone here doing this that can explain it?
Depending on the task it works really well.
