It's strange to me that the voices naysaying agentic coding capabilities seem to be getting louder in recent weeks.
I almost wonder if there's a campaign to start suppressing public awareness of where SOTA capabilities really are.
The discontent is real. The deficiencies these people mention are real. And it's not actually getting better. Sure, web devs and CRUD app devs may be screwed over a bit harder now, but when it gets into really deep complex stuff, the usability of the output goes way, way down. This cliff is real. I assure you. And it's not getting better.
Why is that strange? To me, it’s evidence of growing dissatisfaction with the direction of the field and frustration with being made to deal with the consequences of others bad work
It's really just evidence of what group of people are doing submissions at any given time.
