Coding with AI agents is very similar to working with junior developers (or even other developers) in a team. Someone needs to give the project direction, keep the code organized, suggest refactorings, and many more things.

I guess it's really hard to work with AI agents, if you don't have real project experience in a more senior position.



In my experience it is more like a quite skilled developer, but who is dead drunk.


junior developer doesn't delete tests to "make tests pass"


You haven't been in the industry long enough :)


I do that and I'm senior :)

(To be fair my kind of testing is a lot different than unit tests, and the tests I'm cancelling are mulit-page forms that require three signatures.)
