alt Hacker NewsDo you actively use LLMs to do semi-complex coding work? Because if not, it will sound mumbo-jumbo to you. Everyone else can nod along and read on, as they’ve experienced all of it first hand.

You've missed the point. This isn't engineering, it's gambling.
You could take the exact same documents, prompts, and whatever other bullshit, run it on the exact same agent backed by the exact same model, and get different results every single time. Just like you can roll dice the exact same way on the exact same table and you'll get two totally different results. People are doing their best to constrain that behavior by layering stuff on top, but the foundational tech is flawed (or at least ill suited for this use case).
That's not to say that AI isn't helpful. It certainly is. But when you are basically begging your tools to please do what you want with magic incantations, we've lost the fucking plot somewhere.
