“The autonomous software engineering agent vision is more or less coming to fruition.”

Oddly enough no evidence of this is provided. I’ll admit it’s possible to have Claude write 100% of your code - however this is very distinct from autonomy. If I iterate on the code with Claude - telling it what to change, checking for errors and reporting them back to Claude, etc., I can build an app without “writing code” - but that is totally different from autonomy. And it’s not even clear how much of a time saver this really is if I know the language myself.
