    Personally yes. And I'm sure others have too. The thing is: Large enterprises cracking the agentic swarm isn't giving away their trade secrets. Also not giving away too much info m…

    Concrete experience from building a Go framework with AI as the primary developer (not just a helper): the properties that make Go good for agents are exactly what you'd expect — o…
