> 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.

That's surely me solving the problem, not the agent?

It's still work, but a different kind of work. You have this supercomputer that can answer almost any question and build code far faster than you ever could but you need to know the right questions to ask. It's like Deep Thought in The Hitchhiker's Guide: ask the wrong question and you get "42".
