Curious to hear if you let an LLM write production code! I know smart people that do, and smart people that don't.

What's your view?

Never unattended without a human reading the output. It does not matter about what company they have been to.

The skill of reviewing requires experience and competency in the technology. It will require critically thinking around why the agent chose a technology over another and what the "definition of fixed" not workarounds means by the experienced human.

Whether if it is a big name company or a lesser named company is irrelevant.

> Do agents still produce slop?

Yes.

> Does the 10x engineer really exist?

Yes. They do not care about what company they join. They might even build their own company rather than join anyone else and they do not care about titles. (Which is all made up).
