How is this a gimmick?

It changes my whole profession on a level i couldn't even imagine how we would 'solve' software engineering.

Has it been released to the public yet? Genuine question. Because if you didn't try it yourself, you have to rely on others' reports. And different people who tried it on different projects got different results, leading to different conclusions.

I assure, it doesn't.

We still didn't "solve" software engineering, try to give Claude code access to your friends or family and see what they do with it.

For starters it makes you able to bypass having to go on Reddit to find incomplete trace of solution to some niche problem and acts as a sophisticated (but sometimes wrong) search engine. This already is worth every penny and improved my mental health immensely.
