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.
