@JohnRodkey @mattzcarey we have a startups program but it requires certain requirements - otherwise we'd just be giving away the business to anyone who asked right now its limited to certain programs (e.g. YC) but i know we're slowly expanding it

@mitchellh Agreed. We build the disclosure into the opening statement from the ai agent. For example, "Hello, I'm Mitchell an ai receptionist for xyz corp..." then we allow the user to get out of the ai flow if they want by asking for a human.

It's so insanely disrespectful for an AI agent to talk to real people without consent or at least disclosure. This is the type of stuff I'm hugely supportive of government regulation. The FCC must expand the definition of robocalling and TCPA-style regulation to online AI.

@DavidKPiano That’s just crazy, not doing code review. I treat ai like any other dev, I want somebody performing a code review to ensure we don’t overlook anything and considered all possible scenarios.

Not reviewing the code is just laziness Not talking about text/styles or reading every single token; any code relevant to the main critical application logic should be reviewed Good engineers can pattern-match large blocks of code and OK it in a few seconds. Don't be lazy.
andrew chen@andrewchen

One question I've been asking founders is: do you try to review all the code that the LLMs write or do you just accept it? I think it's about 50-50 right now but the momentum is towards just accepting the AI-generated code and I think that number will eventually go to 100% This is one of the most telling indications of how AI-native a team is. It's hard to get super high throughput if you are reviewing every line Poll: what do you do?

@BenjDicken The only thing missing is a networking book. Swap in Kurose & Ross and you've got the entire OSI model covered

@JohnRodkey @gdb code review is right there in the desktop app. I use it almost exclusively, but occasionally browse to GitHub to see the full diff in a multi-commit PR

@mjackson @gdb You doing it all in the codex app? I assume the code review is still in an editor though, or does that come in the desktop app?

@gdb Codex team cooked with the desktop app! I completely ditched the editor I’d been using for over a decade. 🤯

I read the OP. The AI deleted an environment because it doesn't understand "blast radius"—which is exactly what architecture "the pieces" is. And Amazon's literal fix is making seniors review junior/AI code. Which is exactly what I just said. As a former CIO of a $1B corp, I would’ve done this from the start. One day I think AI will understand the pieces better, but not today.

@JohnRodkey @RyanCarniato If you're still assuming "AI will just write the code" then you're not paying attention. Look at the OP ffs

@RyanCarniato @AdamRackis I think writing code is the easy part. AI handles that. Juniors need to focus on breaking the pieces down—the architecture. My solution: Juniors write prompts, then seniors review the AI code and explain the architecture to level them up. What are y’all seeing?

@AdamRackis I get that. You don't learn without practical application. What jumping in looks like is changing. Maybe at a rate no one is equipped currently with how to deal with. But it isn't unusual to find this separation in other engineering fields.

@cramforce Opus “gets me” faster but 5.3 codex will one shot anything well specced and just never stop until it’s done. I’m still not 100% sure about 5.4 because it kept stopping and saying “I’ll do this next.” And then… not doing it.

My new stack is that I always have Opus and Codex cook on the same change. They are great at reviewing each other.
