    Blog post and the whitepaper don't contain anything novel, just a re-hashing of the current state of agent based coding. Was hoping there would be something actually around a new p…

    The first big AI disaster has already happened and it is the thousand little cuts from people putting faith into systems that aren't built to be trustworthy. It is the software dev…
