I spend all day in coding agents. They are terrible at hard problems.
I find hard problems are best solved by breaking them down into smaller, easier sub-problems. In other words, it comes down to thinking hard about which questions to ask.
AI moves engineering into higher-level thinking much like compilers did to Assembly programming back in the day
