I still am. I think setting up LLMs to call tools in a loop is a fascinating way to build interesting software that could not have existed before.
Coding agents are also upending how software development works, in a way that we are still very much figuring out.
I don't think anyone has a confident answer for how best to apply them yet, especially on larger production-ready projects.
I think you kind of answered this in the post though. "I want somebody to have used the thing" is dogfooding. and it's probably the only quality signal left that can't be generated in 30 minutes.
