thanks for your writeup. I didn't read the original but this one was fun to read through.
this looks like an awesome project, and I appreciate how you went over the ways AI helped and hindered your project at the end. its really hard to get honest feedback about AI from devs IRL right now, everyone keeps saying they have silver bullets in their workflows and I feel like the crazy one for not being able to figure it out.
looking forward to giving AC a shot!
Thanks for the reading, the original post was somewhat unhinged. It was a very long debugging session for the alpha thing, the AI tooling weren't helping. And I was losing my mind over my morning coffee. But I fixed the little details.
I think the reality of the AI tooling for coding fall in the "middle", it isn't the 10x or 100x described by people, it's closer to a 10%~15% performance increase in my humble view. With some better harness (like the PI that I discovered) I think this can be sightly better, but far from the 50%. I would say that if the increase in productivity decays over time, the amount of code generated I had to refactor and clean for most of the week.
But for sure the Claude was a huge disappointment, very bad quality for it's price, and super slow for the needs of a "start up mindset", let's put in this way.
