#2Launching Reflection. Our team pioneered major advances in RL and LLMs, including AlphaGo, AlphaZero, and Gemini. We're building superintelligent autonomous systems. Starting with autonomous coding.
We believe that solving autonomous coding will enable superintelligence more broadly.

#5What's the reason behind this? If agents can code, doesn't that effectively take away your job as an engineer and even your work? I mean, if I can use your agent to build myself your company, how are you going to survive in the future?

The cost of using their agent to replicate the same agent may be astronomical. Maybe the Reflection folks figured out that will bring them enough $$$ to retire afterwards.

Presumably:
1. They think they can control this and sell you a service that can make any app you want nearly instantly.
2. They plan to use any profit they make from the service or sale of the company and invest it in stocks/bonds/real estate after and retire before they themselves get replaced.
3. They plan to use this to keep the team small. One talking point of AI is that it could allow far fewer people to make a valuable company.
4. They don't really know what will happen in that world.

That is the question I keep asking myself. Many makes theories about getting rid of software developers. İf this can be achieved, then software companies wont exist. Every new day, there should be a new OS like windows, a new word, excel etc. So, it is not engineer shooting themself from the foot, but software companies does ?
