Yeah nah.
People posting stuff like this are clearly not doing it; they’re reading LinkedIn posts, toying with the tech and projecting what it looks like at scale.
That’s fair; but it’s also misguided.
Either try it yourself, or go and watch people (eg. @ArminRonacher) doing this at a reasonable scale and you can ground yourself in reality, instead of hype.
The tldr is: currently it doesn’t scale.
Not personally. Not at Microsoft. Not at $AI company.
Currently, as the “don’t change existing behaviour” constraint list goes up, the unsupervised agent capability goes down, and since most companies / individual devs don’t appreciate “help” that does something while breaking something else, this causes a significant hole in the “everyone can 10x” bed time story.
As mentioned in other threads; the cost and effort to produce new code is down, but the cost of producing usable code is, I guess, moderately on par with existing scaffolding tools.
Some domains where the constraints are more relaxed like image generation (no hands? Who cares?) and front end code (wrong styles? Not consistent? Who cares?) are genuinely experiencing a revolution like the OP was talking about.
…but generalising it to “all coding” appears to be like the self driving car problem.
Solvable? Probably.
…but a bit harder than people who don’t understands or haven’t tried to solve it themselves thought, or blogged about or speculated about.
Probably, there’s a much smaller set of problems that are much easier to solve… but it’s not happening in 2026; certainly not at the scale and rate the OP was describing.
You’ll notice, neither of us have self driving cars yet.
(Despite some companies providing cars that do drive themselves into things from time to time, but that’s always “user error” as I understand it…)
